GEORGE TOWN: A presentation file from Kedah’s Budget 2020 dialogue shows that the proposed Kulim International Airport (KXP) will have two runways, sitting on a 17sq km piece of land at the state’s border with Penang.

The file, which leaked out of the closed-door dialogue yesterday onto WhatsApp, also shows that KXP’s development will be financed by the sale of a 18sq km piece of land around the proposed airport site.
