KUALA LUMPUR: As MCA expresses bewilderment at the federal government’s newly announced mega economic boosters for Kedah, which are to be built close to the border of Penang, industry players in Penang are dismayed that the state may be sidelined.

Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong described the decision to spend RM1.6bil to set up an international airport in Kulim as a “classic case of political consideration over economic principles”.
