The Penang Island Municipal Council (MPPP) is believed to have sent its officers out to enforce a stop work order at an RMAF school construction site in Tanjung Bunga.
These photos were taken earlier today before the MPPP took action.
The MPPP action followed a complaint by a neighbouring resident that work was still proceeding despite a stop work order.
Drilling work was also going on, said a resident.
Thumping and knocking sounds could be heard from the site. A source said workers appeared to be doing external work, wiring, etc.
Another neighbouring resident said he had seen workers trooping out of the site in the evenings.
Reporters and council personnel turned up at the site to investigate.
“A stop work order means just that – all work, including maintenance and any other work on site, has to stop,” said the source, who added he was informed that the stop work order would be in place until all building plans and other requirements were submitted to the MPPP and approved.

I think LGE has shown enough guts … to do what a CM needs to do. Unlike KTK, who has to run around … (under UMNO…) trying to understand what needs to be done.
For that, my votes and whole lot of people of people in Penang will still for LGE. We have tasted ‘sugar’, and trust me I don’t need any more ‘sour and bitter’ flavors from BN
THIS PEARL IS HITTING CM LGE LIKE NOBODY BIZ. SO YOU WANT BN BACK TO RULE PENANG, RIGHT ? SO YOU LOVE BN (BARANG NAIK) TO RULE THE NEXT 50 YEARS TO SCREW UP YOUR CHILDREN / GRANDCHILDREN FUTURE AND MAKE THEM PAY, RIGHT ? DO YOU KNOW THEY ARE SO MANY MALAY CONTRACTORS GOT MPPP PROJECTS THRU’ THEIR OWN MERIT IN THE OPEN TENDER PROCESS ? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS TO THEM, THIS IS TO SHOW THEY ARE BENAR-BENAR BOLEH. We do not inherit the Earth from our fathers, we merely borrowed it from our children. ALTERNATE… Read more »
The same situation happen here
What happen to the FED? Pearl of Orient giving special treatment to FED too? Also like DAP, in secret colloration with FED?
Be to fair to Pearl of orient show us your guts to accuse FED mis-spend and building without proper consultation and by passing people.
Dear Ms Pearl, Your comments @ 9.23pm refers. Please do not simply (comment) la as it only reflects badly on us – our own naivety is demonstrated to the public. I can fully understand when one shows anger on our beloved Dr M, our present Mr PM, Mr Samy, Mr Toyo, Mr CM of Sarawak, KJ, etc but i really cant understand why are we so against Lim Guan Eng, a guy who laid down his life for a poor Malay woman, and the most humble CM i have ever seen, and he is only in his 2nd year in… Read more »
Who say that LGE & MPPP are doing nothing.
We need to stop dignifying pearl’s nonsensical blabber with a response.
He isn’t interested in intelligent discussion or reasoning.He simply thrives on irritating people just to get a rise out of them. He needs our attention to survive.
And like any other pest, the best way to deal with him is to simply ignore him.
Without our attention, he will be just like a mad man on the roadside talking to himself.
Just leave him be. He will be forced to wander off and find someone else to annoy .
Have to wonder whatever has happened to MPPP.
When it comes to illegal structures erected by hawkers or kopitiams the MPPP team would go tearing down the structures.
But when it comes to FED constructions no sign of MPPP.
Why the FED gets special treatments every single time?
Is the DAP-led Penang State government in secret collaboration with the FED?
Be fair to the Penangites, Lim Guan Eng.
If you have the guts tearing down hawkers’ structures which are illegally built you should have the same guts tearing down those FED constructed buildings.
Show us your guts, Lim Guan Eng….
You seems not to clearly understand federal and state line of jurisdiction!
Keep on spewing incoherent assumptions and why-can’t-we-push-Feds.
If it is that easy to counter the Feds, no such fiascos and nonsense would have happened in Penang in the first place. Also with a push-over previous CM KTK, you guest as as good as mine.
So previous and present Fed’s dirts hitting Penang are LGE’s responsibilities? Use … your brain before presenting any sensible, laudable and critical ‘assumptions’!
… MPPP which tore down illegal structure were on state land which were an eyesore. Order to tore down structure or building on private land require stringent checking on whether they have being approved or not. In the RMAF case when it was found to have being built illegal the order to stop was given. That is transparency enough. Moreover you are also a HYPOCRITE. You have seen the building, WHY DIDN`T YOU REPORT TO THE AUTHORITIES BUT KEEP BLAMING ON THE ADUN. Have you stoop so low as to keep quiet and later blame on other. Please don`t give… Read more »
If MPPP could impose a stop-work order on this project, why could it not impose a stop-work order on the monstrous Botanical Garden project? Is this a case of MPPP and Lim Guan Eng’s administration picking and choosing which projects to stop and which projects to close one-eye depending on how much cheap publicity LGE can get for himself?
Lim Guan Eng already sold the botanical garden to the FED ma, 7 million woh !
Stupid dude with your many “mas’ and “wohs”! Comment productively and factually without making a fool of yourself! Your intrusions had become very irritating to those who enjoys this blog and you are taking too much space in Anil’s blog. Have you contributed for the good work of Anil? Or are you just another of those dude who is taking advantage of free lunches?
Let me tell you, you are absolutely irritating and you are disturbing the reading pleasures of many. Be considerate of others and stop making a fool of yourself here!
Pearl, you are just telling half truth… Since when has the Botanical Garden being sold ! DUDE. In fact LGE got 7 million for the Botanical restoration and with your idol UMNO & NAJIB Federal administration INCOMPETENCY the project went off course. So don`t blame it on LGE. The blame should also be on you were not bother to tell off the Federal authorities but instead mumble and shouting over here…. Aren`t you (commenting) aimlessly, this topic is about RMAF school, MPPP stop order.
Could it be the Arch is not a building housing people? Also in the beginning,it is handled by Federal JPS as it is directed by the Federal Minister of Tourism. It is a “normal” practice for local council not to campur tangan when the project is directly run by any Federal Agency such as Federal JPS. You expect the Federal JKR which our old Sammy was the big boss to get “approval” from a local (not LOCAL) council in Gerakan/UMNO State?…
MPPP imposed stop order here because the CONSTRUCTION WORK is disturbing the neighbours. The din created causes public disorder. The contractor thinks they are Napoleans… In the case,the construction din in the Botanical Garden only disturb the monkeys…
