PSI project will not destroy livelihoods of fishermen, says PIC

The proposed Penang South Islands (PSI) project plan to reclaim three islands totalling 1,800ha off the southern coast of Penang.

GEORGE TOWN: The Penang government, through the Penang Infrastructure Corporation (PIC), on Saturday (Jan 28) stressed that the Penang South Island (PSI) project will not destroy the livelihoods of fishermen, as claimed by certain parties, instead their route to the sea will be made easier regardless of the tides.

PIC said that the proposed reclamation works will not prevent fishermen from going to sea.
