Penang Turf Club – a central park for the people?

The state has a great opportunity to do something for the people. But will it? Or will it pander to developers’ interests?

Remember, many moons ago, the state granted this land for a pittance as it was originally zoned for recreational use for the people (horse racing).

But then, in the 2000s, during Barisan Nasional rule, some ‘wise guy’ surreptitiously rezoned this land as “mixed development”, making a huge unrealised revaluation profit for certain parties. What a loss to the state/public coffers/ordinary people!
