PETALING JAYA: MCA has asked the Penang government to explain the frequent flooding in the state.  

This follows after the recently released Auditor-General’s 2016 report found that the Seberang Perai Municipal Council (MPSP) had withheld funds received from developers’ mandatory contributions for flood prevention and drainage to the state Drainage and Irrigation Department (DID).
