‘EIA approval is a Raya gift’

The Penang South Islands project involves the reclamation and development of three islands covering 1,820ha. The project’s EIA report has been approved.

FISHERMEN who support the Penang South Islands (PSI) project, which recently obtained its Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report approval, are rejoicing in what they describe as a “Hari Raya gift”.

Fajinah Jaafar, 62, said the news brought joy to her household because they had been waiting for the project to kick off for years.
