DAP rep wants commission to probe Penang sinkholes and landslides


Penang DAP's Tanjung Bungah assemblyman Teh Yee Cheu.

GEORGE TOWN: A DAP assemblyman has proposed for a royal commission of inquiry to be set up to look into the sinkhole in Persiaran Tanjung Bungah and the landslides in Penang Hill.

Teh Yee Cheu (DAP-Tanjung Bungah) said nearby residents had previously raised concerns before the landslide-cum-sinkhole tore up a road in front of a row of newly-built luxury houses on a hillside in Tanjung Bungah on Nov 5.
