IPOH, May 10 — Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad today said that further studies are needed to determine the effect of the Penang South Islands project on the fishermen communities in both Penang and Perak.
“Even though the project has gotten the environmental impact assessment approval, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar said that the project could still be reviewed on whether it will bring more goodness or disaster to the fishermen. “So for me, a proper study needs to be done on this by relevant bodies in a neutral manner,” he told reporters after attending the Perak Darul Ridzuan Building’s Hari Raya Open House here.“We don’t want some group trying to be a hero or politicise this issue as the government already has plans to review the project,” he added.
The PSI reclamation project involves the construction of three man-made islands, measuring 1820ha in total.
