Just received the following message via email from a PKR politician:
Bagi jawatan-jawatan Timbalan Presiden dan Naib-naib Presiden, kami (Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, Nurul Izzah Anwar dan Rafizi Ramli) telah sepakat untuk menawarkan satu gagasan bersama yang menekankan kepada kepimpinan bersama (collective leadership) dan barisan pimpinan masa depan untuk melonjakkan keyakinan rakyat kepada KEADILAN.
Why hasn’t Penang been hit with water rationing so far? Himanshu Bhatt wrote this piece for fz.com a couple of days ago.
What is Penang Forum’s stand on the Seri Tanjung Pinang Phase 2 project? Penang Forum rejects the Detailed Environmental Impact Assessment of the project because of its flawed assumptions, methodologies, calculations, and inconsistencies. We find that the harm outweighs the benefits.
Thus this Detailed EIA is NOT acceptable and should NOT be approved.
