THE Sri Tanjung voluntary firemen in Penang now have a station to call their own thanks to Ideal Property Group.

Group chairman Ooi Hock Keong said the developer took over the construction of the two-storey building in Weld Quay in May 2017 after the initial project was halted due to a lack of funds.
