KUALA LUMPUR: Consortium Zenith Beijing Urban Construction Group Sdn Bhd (CZBUCG) beat seven other bidders for a RM6.3bil project in Penang when it received the highest assessment scores out of all shortlisted developers in the open tender process, the Sessions Court heard.

Former Penang executive councillor Datuk Lim Hock Seng, when testifying as a witness in the corruption trial of Lim Guan Eng, said the state exco also agreed to the former chief minister’s proposal to form two separate committees – Technical and Finance – to assess proposals for the project in 2012.
