Penang may become the first peninsula state to opt out of the national privatisation of solid waste collection and disposal services as it feels its two municipal councils can perform a better job.
State Local Government and Traffic Management Committee chairman Chow Kon Yeow said the state government was not convinced of the ability of a third party to undertake the job effectively.
He said a final decision would be made after the completion of a study by the Social Economic and Environmental Research Institute and the state Local Government division which was expected to be completed next month.

Those thinking of ignoring the local councils’ summonses better think twice, warned state Local Government and Traffic Management Committee chairman Chow Kon Yeow.
“The public should not think that the decision by the court in Temerloh on mini-market owner Subramaniam Gopal means everybody can throw away their summonses.
“The local councils in the state fully complied with the legal provisions under the Federal Constitution and the various Acts when issuing the summonses,” he told a press conference at his office in Komtar yesterday.

The Weld Quay terminal, a notable landmark and gateway to Penang Island, should be redeveloped into a public transportation hub with the ferry, port and other transportation services integrated into one.
Local Government, Traffic Management and Environment Committee chairman Chow Kon Yeow said the terminal had the potential of being transformed into the island’s main transportation hub with the future LRT or inter-city bus services integrated into it as well.
Responding to a statement by Penang Port Sdn Bhd’s (PPSB) managing director and CEO Datuk Ahmad Ibnihajar who said that PPSB would segregate its ferry services into a wholly-owned subsidiary by Thursday, he said: “The Finance Ministry should look at the ferry terminal in its re-development plan.

The state has called on the federal government to redevelop Weld Quay into a multi-modal transport hub.
Local Government and Traffic Management Committee chairman Chow Kon Yeow said the Finance Ministry should transform the Weld Quay ferry terminal into a public transportation hub where there would be integration of the ferry service, water taxi, bus, and future light rail transit (LRT) or aerobus services.
“Weld Quay is a gateway to Penang island and a face lift is long overdue,” he said in a statement on Friday. The Finance Ministry should be looking more that just segregating the Penang ferry service from the port operations undertaken by Penang Port Sdn Bhd (PPSB).”

GEORGE TOWN: A federal allocation promised to Penang after its successful listing as a Unesco World Heritage Site has been given to Khazanah Nasional. “Ideally, the money should have been channelled to us because we are the custodians of the state,” Local Government, Traffic Management and Environment Committee chairman Chow Kon Yeow said.
He said Second Finance Minister Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Nor Yakcop had told him and Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng on Thursday that the money had been given to Khazanah, a Federal Government investment arm.
“Since the money has already been given to Khazanah, I hope the Federal Government will consider giving the state government RM25mil for our conservation projects,” he said, adding that Khazanah should involve the state in its plans to utilise the allocation.
