The state government of Penang should cancel the planning permission approval for the hillslope project in Sg Ara since the development could endanger the lives of the residents, said Teh Leong Meng, Chairman of the Local Government Bureau of Penang Gerakan.
According to a report by Bernama, the residents of Sg Ara are the first to challenge the state government’s decision in the Appeals Board hearing on 18 July.
The project poses a safety concern to the residents as it is located on a hill behind their homes. Aside from that, the residents are also worried of the legal expense that might be incurred should the case become a protracted court battle, noted Teh.
