PETALING JAYA: The Barisan Nasional Strategic Communications (BNSC) team has questioned why the Penang tunnel special purpose vehicle (SPV) condo project was approved in only eight days when in comparison, approval for the state's affordable housing project took more than 200 days.

The joint-venture for development was on a 60-40 basis, with the SPV holding a 40% interest
