Penang floods: Large sinkhole appears in Tanjung Bungah.



GEORGE TOWN: A landslide-cum-sinkhole tore up a road in front of a row of newly-built luxury houses on a hillside in Tanjung Bungah early Sunday.

The landslide occurred at Persiaran Tanjung Bungah 3, and the land slipped down to the base of a towering condominium downhill.

The sheer retaining wall between the houses and the condominium tower gave way and tonnes of laterite earth pushed a steel wall outwards.

It is believed that the houses are unoccupied and no casualties were reported.

Penang has sought help from the armed forces after typhoon-like winds and rain lashed the state since Saturday evening, causing widespread floods, landslides and trees to topple.

In a video posted on his Facebook page Sunday, Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said he called Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to seek his help and thanked the Deputy Prime Minister for picking up the call although it was almost 3.30am.

"He promised to send the armed forces to save Penang," said Lim.

GREEDY DEVELOPER.
PADAN MUKA.

Inb4 bala dari tuhan

Kesian buyer la.

If the flood didn't happened, pity to those buyers that being cheated by greedy developer.

Kekeke

The value sure drop

Who is the developer?

i would say blessing in disguise

imagine if they already renovated and moved in with their furnitures etc

I think many people will cancel the purchase after the tragedy

some place like hig land and low land they need to make it flat.

theyt isi Tanah and less than few years thn build. Sure not enough la.

Remember landslide in Bukit Antarabangsa years ago?
Wonder how the house prices there nowadays

All increase by 100% ... got one unit there ...

Hope those developers will go bust so are the flippers!

wow

u can cancel after purchase a house?

Is this a main road?

Almost no room to park car in the house, almost zero gap between the road and the house, worse it is a single lane tru and fro?

Who approved this shiet

people cut the hill and build the road
normally the road will be very tight , narrow to the hill because that is the most space you can get or cut...

now they instead only build a road. they cut further inside and build a house.

apundek
