The Penang government is committed to providing affordable homes through diverse schemes, assured Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.

He announced an extension of the ‘Home Ownership Campaign’ to a new phase, termed ‘Home Ownership Campaign 3.0 Plus,’ from January 2024 to December 2024.

He also highlighted a 10% reduction in the prices of affordable homes under the campaign.

“On the island, the maximum ceiling price of RM300,000 would be lowered to RM270,000, and on the mainland, the ceiling price of RM250,000 would decrease to RM225,000 for units with a minimum of 850 sq ft,” he said.

Stressing the importance of expos like this for both potential buyers and developers to understand market demands, Chow affirmed the government’s role in promoting homeownership.

“This is an initiative by the state government to help promote homeownership in the community,” Chow said during the Penang Affordable Homes and Property Expo at the Butterworth Arena today.

Meanwhile, Penang Housing and Environment Committee chairman Datuk Seri Sundarajoo Somu urged affordable home applicants to update their details through the Penang Housing Board’s housing information system.

Sundarajoo introduced a new affordable housing category for B40 families earning between RM3,500 to RM5,000, specifically targeting youths.

During the event, 20 applicants received offer letters as a symbolic gesture out of the 300 successful applicants for various affordable home schemes.

Sundarajoo also highlighted the establishment of the HOPE (Housing Outcome Performance Committee) to facilitate the process of offering affordable housing units.

Malaysia attracted a record amount of approved investments worth RM306.5 billion in the manufacturing, services and primary sectors in 2021, driven by higher foreign direct investment (FDI) and increased projects in the manufacturing and the electrical and electronics (E&E) sectors, according to the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA) at its annual media conference on Tuesday (March 8).

In a statement, MIDA said that Malaysia’s FDI of RM208.6 billion accounted for 68.1% of total approved investments, with the remaining 31.9% coming from domestic direct investment (DDI) at RM97.9 billion.

Year-on-year, Malaysia’s FDI was significantly higher by 224.9% from RM64.2 billion in 2020, however, DDI declined marginally by 5.13% from RM103.2 billion the year before.

“The Netherlands (RM78 billion), Singapore (RM47.3 billion), the People’s Republic of China (RM31.3 billion), Austria (RM18.9 billion) and Japan (RM9.9 billion) accounted for 88.9% of total FDI approved in the manufacturing, services and primary sectors.

“Pulau Pinang (RM83.5 billion) recorded the highest investments approved last year, followed by Kedah (RM68.3 billion), Kuala Lumpur (RM37.7 billion), Selangor (RM28.8 billion) and Sarawak (RM25.7 billion).

“These five states contributed 79.6% of total approved investments in 2021,” the statement read.

Officiating the event was Senior Minister and International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali, who said the record-breaking approved investments for the manufacturing, services and primary sectors were a 83.1% jump from 2020’s figure.

Azmin added that Malaysia’s RM97.9 billion DDI in 2021 is a signal that local industry players had grown in terms of capabilities and business capacity to be competitive on the global stage.

“Moving forward, I am delighted to share that MIDA has already secured 352 projects in the pipeline with proposed investments of RM39.2 billion for the manufacturing and services sectors.

“These projects will create more than 19,000 new job opportunities for the rakyat,” Azmin said.

Manufacturing sector continues to be mainstay with E&E topping approved investments

Meanwhile, the manufacturing sector led total investments approved in 2021 by recording RM195.1 billion, followed by the services sector and the primary sector at RM94.1 billion and RM17.3 billion respectively.

The manufacturing sector reported a leap in approved investments by 113.7% from RM91.3 billion in 2020, while the services and primary sectors saw improvements of 34.4% and 183.6% from RM70 billion and RM6.1 billion respectively.

Notably, the E&E industry contributed the bulk of the FDI as well as total approved investments within the manufacturing sector by recording RM148 billion for 94 approved projects.

Chief among the E&E industry’s RM148 billion in total approved investments included RM42.2 billion from Risen Solar for the design development and manufacturing of solar modules and solar cells, followed by Intel Electronics’ RM30 billion to produce wafer fabrication and stacked dies in Pulau Pinang, AT&S’ RM8.5 billion to establish design development and manufacturing of integrated circuit substrates in the Kulim Hi-Tech Park, and Infineon Technologies’ RM3.25 billion in Melaka.

MIDA, the country’s investment promotion and development agency, said that Malaysia secured 75 capital-intensive projects valued at RM100 million and above in 2021, which could spur the growth of new advanced manufacturing technologies and produce a highly-skilled workforce.

Meanwhile, the services sector’s 34.4% improvement in 2021 was driven by sub-sectors such as real estate (RM28.8 billion), global establishments (RM19.7 billion), financial services (RM12 billion), utilities (RM9.6 billion), and information and communications (RM8.2 billion).

The bulk of the primary sector’s approved investments were led by the mining sub-sector’s RM17.1 billion or 98.7% amid higher crude oil and natural gas prices, while the plantation and commodities and agriculture sub-sectors brought in RM211.4 million and RM20.5 million respectively.

There will be no increase in electricity charges for residential consumers in the peninsula until Dec 31, 2024, the Energy Commission announced yesterday.

This followed speculation that a new tariff rate would be implemented from Feb 1.

The Energy Commission said domestic users in the peninsula will also receive a rebate of 2 sen per kWj with no surcharge imposed from Feb 1 to June 30.

However a surcharge of 3.7 sen/kWj will be imposed on all non-domestic users, such as commercial and industrial companies.

The Energy Commission said electricity costs had increased by 45% because of higher prices of coal, on which the peninsula is highly dependent.

It said the government had allocated RM715 million from the Electricity Industry Fund to cover the cost of the full rebate and surcharge for all domestic consumers.

A section of the Bukit Kukus paired road project under the Penang Island City Council (MBPP) is expected to be officially open to road users on Jan 13 this year.

Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow and state Transport and Infrastructure Committee chairman Zairil Khir Johari, together with MBPP mayor Datuk Yew Tung Seang and MBPP secretary A. Rajendran, visited the project site today.

Zairil said MBPP had already completed its portion of the construction works recently.

“We are happy that finally a section of the project is 100% completed after six years in construction.

“It has been delayed for a few times due to the landslide incident, the Covid-19 lockdown and some technical issues involving additional works.

“Nevertheless, it has been completed now. We hope this iconic project will be able to solve traffic congestion at a rate of up to 30%.

“At a height of 55m from the pile caps, is the highest elevated highway in the country.

“Thus, this project is the state government’s legacy for the people of Penang.

“Hopefully, it will bring many benefits to the road users, especially residents of Balik Pulau, Paya Terubong and nearby areas,” Zairil told Buletin Mutiara during a site visit today.

The 5.5km paired road project, costing RM545.6 million, consists of three sections. It connects Paya Terubong and Relau.

The state government, through MBPP, is responsible for the construction of a 3.3km stretch that costs RM275.6 million.

Meanwhile, two more developers, PLB Land Sdn Bhd and Geo Valley Sdn Bhd, are responsible for the remaining 1.4km (RM150mil) and 0.8km (RM120mil) stretches respectively.

According to Zairil, the other two portions by the private companies would not be ready this year.

“PLB Land’s section is expected to be completed in 2025.

“Meanwhile, for Geo Valley’s section, the completion date is unknown due to an ongoing court case but they will do their best to expedite the project,” he added.

Penang has been ranked as the third-best island in the world to retire in once again this year.

In a list published by International Living, Penang was the only island in Asia listed and is noted for its friendly and helpful populace.

“The island of Penang, off the coast of Malaysia, has been a firm favourite among savvy expats for decades.

“Here, the lifestyle is First World—it’s possible to trade-up. A couple can live well on a monthly budget of between $1,500 and $2,500 a month.

“It’s a luxury life on an affordable budget with all the comforts and conveniences of home,” the publication wrote.

In the listing, Penang was also noted for its strategic location within Southeast Asia and “home to eclectic architecture, a vibrant arts scene, and the best street food in the world”.

It was listed as the third-best island after Malta and Mallorca, Spain.

The website is known to promote the idea of living better for less overseas, with works to research and provide information on destinations that are “cheap, safe, healthy and free”.

Penang state tourism and creative economy executive councillor Yeoh Soon Hin said the state is glad to be ranked first in Asia and to be in the top three globally, sharing the limelight with 14 other amazing islands on the list.

“Penang is home to a galore of heavenly street food, juxtaposed against colonial buildings that ooze a historical charm.

“Our pristine nature, tropical climate and excellent connectivity are exactly why you should visit this Pearl of the Orient,” he said.

In April this year, Penang was also listed by another travel publication catering to senior travellers as the third best island in the world, and the first in Asia to retire in 2021.

这也是槟城连续2年获该网站评为全球最佳退休岛屿之一。

Construction works of several components are scheduled to begin in Gurney Wharf by middle of next month.

Penang Local Government, Housing, Town and Country Planning Committee chairman Jagdeep Singh Deo said the state government looked forward to the groundbreaking ceremony.

“There are several components that need to be worked on, and they are divided into two ‘priorities’.

“They are ‘Priority One’ and ‘Priority Two’.

“Several components such as children’s playground, skate park, viewing deck (south vantage point), public toilets, pedestrian promenade, trader’s kiosks, recreational park, landscape areas and open space carparks are categorised under ‘Priority One’.

“Works on the components under ‘Priority One’ will begin next year. The facilities are scheduled to open to the public by the end of next year (2022).

“Works on ‘Priority Two’ and ‘Priority One’ will start simultaneously.

“We hope that the components of ‘Priority Two’ will be completed by the second quarter of 2023,” he told a press conference at Gurney Drive today.

Jagdeep said the components listed under ‘Priority Two’ were additional landscaping areas, more recreational parks, a hawker centre, viewing deck (north vantage point), public toilets, more trader’s kiosks, multi-storey carparks, open space carparks, beach area and boardwalk, water garden, and the drainage system.

“We want to have more green parks in Penang. And we will see many green components in Gurney Wharf,” he said.

Jagdeep added that land reclamation is nothing new.

“There are many land reclamation projects that are implemented around the world, especially the island states where land are scarce.

“The question is whether can land reclamation be done in a sustainable manner. And we will ensure that land reclamation projects in Penang are done sustainably.

“With these additional land made available via land reclamation, we can build more affordable housing for the people, and we can have more green areas too,” he said.

Also present were Eastern & Oriental Berhad (development & construction management) senior general manager Datuk Zawawi Yusop and Public Works Department (JKR) road superintendent civil engineer Goh Kiet Rhee.

The Seberang Perai City Council (MBSP) is gearing up for the Phase Three of the National Recovery Plan (NRP) now that more people have been vaccinated as well as there has been a decline in the number of Covid-19 cases.

Its mayor Datuk Rozali Mohamud said the council has drafted action plans in case the state moves to next phase of NRP. Penang has been under Phase Two of NRP since July 7 this year.

“The action plans involve the market and food complexes, night markets, morning markets, uptown, recreational parks and stratified buildings.

“In addition to the basic standard operating procedures (SOPs), we will take sterner measures at the 14 ‘hotspot markets’, which are only open to those who have completed taking two doses of vaccine.

“We will also improve the supervision of the markets by installing more mobile closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs).

“Those who are found to violate SOPs will have their businesses suspended for three days.

“Kids who are below 12-years-old are now allowed to enter these ‘hotspot markets’,” he said during a press conference yesterday.

The 14 markets are in Bukit Mertajam, Kampung Baru, Chai Leng Park, Taman Selamat, Sri Rambai, Kompleks Bunga Raya, Sri Bandar, Bagan Ajam, Tasek Gelugor, Kepala Batas, Taman Berjays, Bukit Panchor, Perkampungan Valdor and Tambun Indah.

On the recreational parks, Rozali pointed out that the council would implement a static control in Taman Tunku, Bukit DO, Robina Eco Park, Pantai Bersih and Vision Park Bertam.

“We will have a certain time of monitoring in 17 of the recreational parks and 925 open spaces.

“Outdoor gym facilities are allowed to operate under strict SOPs, including permitting only those who have completed two doses of vaccine to use the equipment.

“The operating hours for recreational parks are from 6am to 8pm daily,” he said.

Meanwhile, in conjunction with the World Mental Health Day and MBSP City Day, the council has launched ‘Explore Your Mind’ (Teroka Minda Anda) online programme to focus on the mental health of employees.

Rozali said the pandemic has changed the people’s normal life and some may feel depressed after staying at home for a long period.

“This online application is a joint effort by the Health Service Department with Information Technology Department and MBSP Communication Department. It is aimed at identifying the risk of depression and stress level among council staff, especially during the post-pandemic period.

“This application can be accessed through https://dass.mbsp.gov.my/dass/ beginning tomorrow (Oct 5).

“There will be 21 questions for the council staff to answer and the results will be analysed further,” he said.

In another development, Rozali said the council has collected a total revenue of RM57.5 million from July 1 to Aug 31 this year, exceeding the RM50 million target.

“During the assessment tax collection period, many have stepped forward to pay,” he said.

The proposed Penang Hill cable car project does not affect the Unesco recognition of the Penang Hill Biosphere Reserve, says state Local Government, Housing, Town and Planning Committee chairman Jagdeep Singh Deo.

He said many areas which have been listed as Unesco biosphere reserves throughout the world have cable car projects, some even 10 times larger than the one proposed for Penang.

“The proposed Penang Hill cable car project is located in the transition zone of the Penang Hill Biosphere Reserve and is thus allowed.

“The Unesco listing of the Penang Hill Biosphere Reserve is another feather in our cap. To all the naysayers out there, it is not easy for us to achieve it.

“We will ensure the status is maintained under this Penang government’s watch,” Jagdeep said during a press conference on the current status of the Penang Hill Special Area Plan and the George Town World Heritage Site near the Clock Tower in Light Street on Monday.

He continued: “We want to allay your fears; we are doing this for the better of Penang.

“Just like the Gurney Wharf, the response is overwhelming. We want to move forward and we will certainly not endanger such recognition because we love Penang.”

Jagdeep also commended Penang Hill Corporation general manager Datuk Cheok Lay Leng and other stakeholders for successfully obtaining the Unesco listing for the Penang Hill Biosphere Reserve.

The Federal Government, under Pakatan Harapan, announced a RM100 million initial allocation for the cable car project but after its fall, the incoming Pakatan Nasional government rescinded the decision in April 2020.

The Penang government then decided the cable car project to be built under a public-private financing model.

Cheok said many renowned national parks, nature reserves and even Unesco World Heritage Sites and Biosphere Reserves around the world, like in Africa, Japan and China, have cable car system.

“Cable car system is very environmental-friendly. Its construction does not require massive deforestation so this will not bring detrimental effects to the environment.

“Cable cars run on electric power and has low noise pollution.

“Furthermore, cable cars will help the older folks to go up and down the hill and still enjoy the scenery.

“We will ensure the project is well planned and executed in accordance with the stringent technical and safety requirements, and more importantly, meet environmental standards,” Cheok said during a phone interview.

料未来一周完成10%人口接种2剂疫苗 槟有望在下周进入NRP的第二阶段。

槟州首席部长曹观友表示，槟州预料未来一周可达致至少10%人口完成注射2剂新冠疫苗目标,与此同时,他希望疫苗持续到位,助力槟州在10月达致群体免疫。

“此外,在国家冠病免疫计划（PICK）下，槟州将在7月份接获59万1532剂疫苗，比6月仅获20万剂，取得大幅增长,希望7月过后，疫苗也可顺利到位,推动槟州迈向群体免疫。”

首长是今天出席大马厂商联合会槟城分会主办的“槟州疫苗接种进展线上交流会”时，这么表示。

大马厂商联合会槟城分会邀请10个各行业组织的代表参与这项交流会，由大马厂商联合会槟城分会顾问拿督斯里黄英福主持，与会者包括该会主席拿督王竞庆、掌管贸易事务的拿督阿都哈林行政议员、掌管卫生事务的诺蕾拉行政议员，以及贸消部槟州总监杰根苏巴玛念。

10个各行业组织代表包括-槟城机器厂商会、槟州家具同业商会、马来西亚中小企业商会槟州分会、槟州五金机械商公会、槟州金鉆珠宝商公会、马来西亚印刷商公会槟州分会、马来西亚塑料厂商公会、槟城自由工业区公司联合会、大马国际工商总会及槟城台商公会。

首长表示，州政府详细规划，以便槟城人民得以接种疫苗，达到以下三个目标：（1）至少10% 人口接种两剂疫苗、（2）为所有已登记的 60 岁及以上长者和慢性疾病患者（仍在排期中）接种疫苗、（3）开始为 60 岁及以下已登记的年龄层接种疫苗。

他透露，7月2日举行的国家安全委员会会议上，科学、工艺及革新部长指出，4家在政府与私人界合作疫苗接种计划（或PIKAS）下批准的疫苗接种中心，将在7月内投入运作，即峇六拜区的英特尔（Intel）、捷普（Jabil Circuits）、贝莱胜（Plexus），以及峇都加湾的益纳利美昌集团（Inari Amerton）。

“PIKAS 的疫苗供应有必要与公共疫苗接种中心的错开，以确保该计划得以顺利进行。”

首长强调，疫苗接种率是评估我国是否已能进入国家复苏计划下一阶段的重要指标，因此，槟州政府在疫苗接种方面必全力以赴，减低冠病确诊之余也为复苏做好准备。

从七月起可免费乘坐渡轮六个月

槟州基设与交通事务委员会主席再里尔宣布，在全国抗疫期间，为鼓励大家 乘搭公共交通工具，所有大马公民(只限步行者)从7月1日起至12月31日，可免费搭快艇来 回槟威。

他今日发文告说，所有国人包括乐龄者、成年人、小孩和残疾者，都可享有这项免费措施，所有费用由槟州政府承担。

他说，国人在搭快艇时只需出示大马卡，触碰槟州港又有限公司所装备的感应器即可。

“这项措施预计每个月有6万5000张船票，费用7万8000令吉，半年总额为46万8000令吉。”

他指出，州政府希望通过这措施，减轻使用公交来回槟岛和威省的民众的每日开销。

他也说，州政府今年3月1日已宣布My30免费快捷通巴士服务后，再议决推行上述免费快艇措 施，即已为人民提供免费的海陆公交服务。
