AN ASSEMBLYMAN is of the view that Hong Seng Estate in Penang comprising 560 houses should be redeveloped in view of the constant landslides and soil erosions.

Pulau Tikus assemblyman Yap Soo Huey said she would propose the move to the state government since the local residents were also receptive to the plan.
