“With a newer, modern Kulim Airport as competition, Penang’s economy will suffer and the proposed LRT and highways under the Penang Transport Master Plan will become white elephants,” he said.

“Chow must stand his ground to stop the Kulim Airport instead of waiting for meetings with Kedah and the Transport Ministry,” he said.
