GEORGE TOWN: The state government wants to keep to the collective decision not to have processions for this year’s Thaipusam as it considers the safety of Penangites to be paramount, says Penang Chief Minister II Dr P. Ramasamy.

He maintained that the decision had been made collectively among stakeholders who included representatives of Nattukotai Chettiar Temple.
