The PR state government will not bow to threats from BN Penang to sue the state government for exposing their scandals (en/cn)

BN Penang & Teng Hock Nan's 3 Lies That The Penang PR State Government Had Approved Berjaya Development Plans For Penang Hill Will Not Stop The Printing Of Pamphlets To Expose BN's Refusal To Come Clean On The RM40 Million Tang Hak Ju Land Scam, RM30 Million Pulau Jerejak Scandal And MPSP RM230 Million Loss Scandal.

BN Penang & Teng Hock Nan's 3 lies that the Penang PR state government had approved Berjaya Development Corp's plans for Penang Hill will not stop the printing of pamphlets to expose BN's refusal to come clean on the RM40 million Tang Hak Ju land scams, RM30 million Pulau Jerejak scandal and Majlis Perbandaran Seberang Perai(MPSP) RM 230 million loss scandal. This public campaign will also exert pressure on BN to return as much as possible of the money lost to the people of Penang.

Instead of expressing remorse over such loss of public funds, BN has continued to brazenly lie about the Penang state government secretly approving Berjaya's development plans for Penang Hill. BN dares to continue lying because no action has been taken by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission(MACC) despite the state government lodging a report on the RM40 million Tang Hak Ju land scam.

In fact Teng Hock Nan had made 3 lies on the development of Penang Hill issue. The first lie is when Teng publicly called for a people's uprising on 26 August 2011 against the Penang PR state government's revival of Berjaya's original plans to develop Penang Hill. When challenged to show proof that such approval had been given to Berjaya, Teng made a 180 degree U-turn by lying on 29 August 2011 that he never made this claim. There is now a third newest lie by Teng that I had held secret meetings with Berjaya on reviving their original plans for the development of Penang Hill.

I wish to reiterate that the Penang state government had never approved any project from Berjaya Corp to develop Penang Hill. Berjaya had not even sent any proposal to develop Penang Hill to the present state government. All projects on Penang Hill are carried out individually under open tender. Neither has the Berjaya group even bid for any of the 3 development projects carried out by open public tender, namely Craig Hotel, the hawker complex and the canopy walk.

Penang PR state government will not be distracted by such baseless accusations and lies but will instead press for BN to come clean on BN's RM300 million scandals on land scams, Pulau Jerejak and loss of MPSP funds. It is clear that BN has no answer to PR anti-corruption stance, CAT governance and open tenders which has even earned Penang praise from Transparency International and The Economist, the first time this has happened in Peanng's history.

The PR state government will not bow to threats from BN Penang to sue the state government for exposing their scandals but will go for a public phampleting campaign to ask BN to come clean and return as much money as possible of the money lost to the people of Penang.

槟州首席部长林冠英于2011年9月4日在乔治市发表声明 :

虽然槟州国阵和丁福南三次说谎,指槟州民联政府已经批准成功集团发展升旗山,这不会阻止我们继续派发传单,揭发国阵拒绝交代清楚4000万令吉的陈合裕土地舞弊案、3000万令吉木蔻山丑闻及威省市政局亏损2亿3000万令吉的丑闻。

虽然槟州国阵和丁福南三次说谎,指槟州民联政府已经批准成功集团发展升旗山,这不会阻止我们继续派发传单,揭发国阵拒绝交代清楚4000万令吉的陈合裕土地舞弊案、3000万令吉木蔻山丑闻及威省市政局亏损2亿3000万令吉的丑闻。这项民众运动也将施压国阵,尽速归还槟州人民失去的金钱。
国阵不但没有针对上述亏损的公款表示悔意,还继续编造谎言,指槟州政府秘密批准成功集团发展升旗山的计划。国阵一直讲骗话,因为槟城政府在投报涉及4000万令吉的陈合裕土地舞弊案后,马来西亚反贪污委员会却一直没有采取行动。

事实上,丁福南已经针对升旗山发展课题撒了三次谎。第一次是丁福南在2011年8月26日呼吁人民站出来反对槟州民联政府重新采用成功集团发展升旗山的原订计划。当我们挑战他出示证据时,他马上在2011年8月29日180度大转弯,否认他发表过上述谈话。第三个谎言就是他说我与成功集团秘密会谈,商讨有关按原订计划重新发展升旗山的事项。

我要重申,槟州政府从来没有批准过成功集团在升旗山进行任何计划。成功集团也从来没有提呈任何升旗山发展计划书给当今的槟州政府。所有升旗山的发展项目都 是通过公开招标进行的。成功集团根本没有参与下列三个项目的公开竞标,它们是Crag Hotel, 综合小贩中心和天蓬走道。

槟州民联政府不会被上述毫无根据的指控和谎言分散注意力,反而会继续向国阵施压,要他们交代国阵三宗涉及3亿令吉的土地丑闻、木蔻山发展计划丑闻及威省市政局亏损丑闻。很明显地,面对民联的肃贪行动、能干、公信及透明施政原则及公开招标,甚至在槟城历史上第一次获得国际透明组织及《经济学人》的表扬,国阵答不上来。

槟州国阵说要针对丑闻被揭发的事情起诉州政府,槟州民联政府绝不低头,反而会继续展开我们的民众运动,分派小册子,要国阵交代清楚,并且尽速偿还槟州人民失去的金钱。

林冠英
