Seven tombs from Lot 1558 and 12 tombs from Lot 1559 at the United Hokkien Cemeteries in Ayer Itam, George Town, will be affected by the proposed 5.7km road bypass project.
THE relocation of several 100-year-old graves at United Hokkien Cemeteries in Penang to make way for the 5.7km road bypass project had been included in the EIA from the beginning.
Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said the state has nothing to hide on the matter.
