Penang CM explains Penang South Islands project


IN view of increased interest in the Penang South Islands (PSI) project and various statements calling for the project’s cancellation, the Penang State Government feels obliged to again recap how we have been able to come this far and explain the project’s significance.

Firstly, for the record, we have obtained approvals for the Hydraulics Study, Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) Report, Marine Traffic Risk Assessment (MTRA) Report, and Social Impact Assessment (SIA) Report. The Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIA), which also included a Fisheries Impact Assessment (FIA) Report, was also approved by the Environmental Department (DoE).
