PETALING JAYA: The unprecedented legal suit by a unit of MPHB Capital Bhd
against the Johor state government and Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) indicates that the price of land in Pengerang could have appreciated by more than 800% within a space of two years.
According to legal documents, MPHB Capital alleged that its land was unlawfully acquired by the Johor state government at a price of 93 sen per square foot (psf) despite there being an agreement between the latter and Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) to purchase the land at RM8 psf.
