This issue has been settle, but this is my little comments on this issue.

people like us, a rootgrass people living in the bottom level of the country. we have been left behind for pass 50 years. The only things can changes is invest in to education, to gain more opportunity in carrer and better living in the future.

I think the penang state government is done the right things on this issue. The penang state government compensate so much money to the people. some more provide the people a double story house to them. I believe this is the first state government provide such good benefit to the victim of the development.

this issue is clear, the penang state government is try to settle this thing in hurry. unfortunately, this issue being use by BN political tools.

we hope to create a equal system in the country. people like us can work hard and earn for better living in the future under a equal system, open tender system, anti corruption and so on.

This is the last change we can change the unfair situation in to correct way to save us and our next genenaration. prime minister, penang cheif minister and a people like me should treat equally. And this will be a good environment to living and create hamorny.

Am i right?

the fact to be consider is that according to the national land code, all prpoperty is vested in the stste and only the state authority has the power to dispose the land. the second vital element is that the concept of adverse possesion is not recognized under the national land code-s.48. yet the are continuous demand sbeing made by various quaters for right of ownership of land on the ground that they had been for a long time and had worked on the land, through the said land not anytime being alienated to tehm. according to the law they are squatters simliciter..law shud be followed,but cannot blindly obey since it made by the people…mix question need 2 be answer..who hv the power to alienated land???state authority???alinated to whom???natural person other than minor, corporations, government, organization..issue here,does the recognize squatters???

Only GOD can safe d minoritys in Malaysia.

Thank you LGE, CM of Penang that u hv done an excellent negotiation for the Kg Buah Pala “squarters”. One BN lawyer told me that even the BN govt cant negotiate such a big bonus for the squatters, even though the whole problem have been created by bn, what can bn do as armno is the boss, the land deal gets involved with armno YBsssssss. Congratulations, our esteemed YAB Lim Guan Eng, our Chief Minister of Penang, we will definitely support you. You are still the best. For the by-election in Permatang Pasir, PR will win with more majority compared to 308GE. To BN, enough is enough. It is a gone case for MCA and GERAKAN in Penang and throughout Malaysia. These two parties plus MIC are too small a flY in the crooked and corrupted eye of armno. Tok Guru Nik, Dato Seri Anwar, Dato Nizar, MB of Perak, Dato Zaid Ibrahim, YB Lim Kit Siang, please act fast to take over as the Govt.

On the issue of the “unprecedented generous” offer, check this out:

Don’t you think those residents are lucky this time around having PR as the state government? I was only wondering, if this is still Gerakan/BN state, would they have all this leeway? Most probably, demolishing squad would have done their job weeks ago.
LGE should get on the job of governing Penang,period.

The land has been occupied for longand there are people living there. They are voters and they are citizens of this country. I wonder how come big and greedy shark able to land on that particular land? Can this big shark move on to other estuary? Secondly, if a deep fishing vessel can catch bigger fish why not share it with little fishing vessel? You cannot share with them just because they are ‘little fish’ that have no market value? Don’t be greedy guys. God created land for every body to live in and not only for the greedy lords. Well, just because majority of whom are indians that’s why they cannot get the share? If I were you I would have not bought nor do I transfer the land easily like that. Off course we are govern by the laws but these laws are man created and they are liable to be changed. You know that the land had been occupied why should you trouble them? Meaning, you are the one (big fish) who creat problems with this minority little ants. TQ.

to the villagers,

pls move on and just take the offer now and and to show u all were ready to negotiate. all details can be worked out. whether or not u accept, the houses will be demolished. There are no 2 ways abt this.

the land was sold during BN ruling in PG, plain n simple. LGE tried his best to help but he CANNOT go against the law or refuse to issue permits to developers without clear reasons. It was very easy for LGE to sit outside the ring for this one but he chose to intervene and negotiate with the developers.

Kampung Pala people deserve it.

Squatters being given house that easily worth 500K on the island and temporary shelter during construction

what could they have ask for more?

if under BN, indians temple are being demolished without giving any chance to nego

maybe under PKR also should do the same to their squatters home.

No mention made about “temporary shelter” in the offer letter to the villagers – Anil
