No development in Tanjong because of DAP?
The Star carries the following story in its print edition today.
60 projects carried out in Tanjung
Penang: At least 60 projects have been carried out or being developed in the Tanjung parliamentary constituency said Tanjung MP Chow Kon Yeow.
The DAP parliamentarian said the projects worth more than RM1bil were implemented by the Government or private sector.
He cited the Swettenham Pier international cruise terminal, Tanjong City Marina and Penang Times Square project as examples.
He was commenting on reports quoting Tanjung Gerakan chairman Teng Chang Yeow as saying there had not been much development in the constituency since the seat was won by the DAP in 1986.
Chow told a press conference he was disappointed with Teng for making the “misleading statement”.
Is this a valid excuse? What a bunch of nonsense!
There’s no development in a constituency because the local authorities don’t act upon the problem.
I know, the ruling party like to use this shady tactic to win over the hearts of the electorate.
Bukit Bintang constituency have abandoned projects like the Plaza Rakyat, and recently, NAS Pavillion. And the constituency is under Fong Kui Lun of DAP. I should ask them, is this also because of DAP? Ask yourself, what can he do as a rep? He can only highlight problems to attention. It’s the local authority who have the power to execute!
