Lim takes Koh to task for not re-tendering Komtar project


GEORGE TOWN: Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has rapped his predecessor Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon for not practising open tender in the sale of state land for the Komtar Urban Redevelopment Project in 1995.

He said the land was awarded to the second highest bidder at RM240psf in the middle of 1995 when the original bidder who tendered the highest price of RM300psf in early 1993 failed to pay the first instalment for the land.
