MRT Corp to sign contract for Penang's Mutiara LRT line, boosting connectivity and economic growth. California wildfires spread, causing evacuations and fatalities.
MRT Corp is set to sign a contract for the first segment of the Mutiara LRT line on Monday. The line will span 29.5km with 21 stations, connecting key hubs in Penang and boosting connectivity and economic growth. The Transport Minister, Anthony Loke, announced this development. Meanwhile, the Palisades Fire in California continues to spread, forcing evacuations and causing at least 11 fatalities.
Health officials in Los Angeles have urged residents to stay indoors due to dangerous wildfire smoke blanketing the area. The smoke, a mixture of small particles, gases, and water vapors, poses health risks, particularly for vulnerable groups like children, the elderly, and those with respiratory or heart conditions.
