BUKIT MERTAJAM: Penang hopes to get its ‘fair’ share of fund allocations from the Federal Government following a decision to review the amounts of funding channelled to states.

Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said he hoped Penang would get a large amount of allocation as there were still many major projects to be implemented here.
