@@davidyong9497 the more Penang earn, the more Federal government going to taxed Penang. not only this, can be also all the hard earn money went into the politicians pockets too. Who knows right?
Sometimes, it really saddens me to see projects like this fail in the end. The issue with Malaysia is that they often go for big projects that bring BIG MONEY into political pockets-just like the one in the Malacca Strait. Why does Malaysia still need to reclaim land when they already have so much?
u did not mention before 2008, during BN PM Abdullah time already announced monorail project, but Penang voters slapped BN gov with low supports, that's the why the projects called off.
@@Jacko169 how can u be so sure? Ya partly true because penang gov under Dap also slapped own face many times, the unseen underwater tunnel, cable car, Lrt... All still unseen for 15 years
@@jylaw9495 well that’s because all the decision making and power held by then BN UMNO federal government and of course DAP and UMNO look each others like enemy. Btw, Penang state government don’t have the power and money to do all these mega projects since everything is so tightly controlled and need approval by the federal government. Unless Penang can gain independence in order to get back its autonomy then Penang government might have chance to do all this projects
@@Jacko169 As u said, Penang don't have the power, and they knew it. But variety of promises were made in these 15 years, does that means that there were all lies? A simple excuse given and repeatedly used for 15 years: Penang Dap not the fedeeal gov, yet still promises lots of things. But anyway as long as Penangites are happy with all these beautiful dreams that is ok.
@@jylaw9495 Every Penangites know that DAP led Penang government really tried their best and they really wanted to make contributions to developed Penang. It’s not that DAP making a false promise the main issues are the previous federal government which causing a lot of problem since every single approval of development of mega projects held by them. If wasn’t for DAP led Penang, Penang won’t be developed as it is today. Remember Dr.M still called Penang darul Sampah ever since held by Gerakan led government?
