Penang warehouse collapse: Logistics complex at about 55% completion, says mayor


GEORGE TOWN: Construction of the three-storey logistics complex in Batu Maung, where large concrete beams collapsed onto nine workers on Tuesday (Nov 28) night, was scheduled to be completed by the end of this year, says Penang Island City Council (MBPP) mayor Datuk A. Rajendran.

However, he said only about half of the project has been completed so far after almost a year of work.
