Penang airport expansion would have started if Guan Eng had accepted Federal funds, says Dr Wee


GEORGE TOWN: The Federal Government has not shelved plans to expand the Penang International Airport but there are other issues to take care of before the project can continue, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The Transport Minister said that it would be carried out once Malaysia Airport Holdings Bhd (MAHB) is ready to pump in the money and land issues are settled.
