Yes
There are 1.6 million Govt servants. Many are inefficient and redundant and will be a drag on Govt Pension Fund like bankrupt Greece

If PH Govt also sleep on the job like BN the Malaysian economy might go the way of Zimbabwe, Greece or Venequela

i just stated the fact

in spore almost everthing is leasehold

cars
bikes
lorries
vans
jeeps
hdb flats
hdb low cost houses
govt ec (condos)

for cars only 10 year lease

my family cars were bought new and scrapped over the years

2 nissan
1 suzuki car
1 kia carens

in these 4 cars i lost more than half million ringgit when coe expired in 10 years

now hdb flats with 99 years lease will also expire

only hdb in prime locations like holland drive and parts of queenstown with potential are enbloc and redeveloped...for a handful of these lucky ones wil get good compensation....the rest will see horrendous destruction of value

so this is why i tell people about Johor houses with freehold title

Think like this

In the 1950s and 1960s
Spore is like KL
and Johor like Pj in the 1960s

People worked in Kl and travel to Pj as sleeping quarters in those days

Just like People work in Singapore and travel back to stay in JB at night

That history of KL and PJ was then

NOW PJ IS JUST AS DEVELOPED AS KL

SO JB WILL PLAY CATCH UP WITH SINGAPORE

ALSO LAST TIME WHEN HONG KONG BOOMED SHENZHEN WAS A BACKWARD FISHING VILLAGE

TODAY THE PICTURE HAS CHANGED

SHENZHEN IS AS BOOMING AS HONG KONG

SO WILL JB BOOM WITH FDI OF OVER RM300 BILLIONS

GEORGE TOWN: An geospatial expert today warned that a 10km tunnel, which is part of the controversial Pan Island Link 1 (PIL 1) highway, might pass through fault lines that could cause irreversible damage.

Kam Suan Pheng, a soil scientist, said Penang island comprised of “one granitic rock” and had naturally occurring fault lines or cracks, where water would usually seep through.

She said if these were hit during the tunnelling process, it could spell disaster.

Kam said based on the environmental impact assessment (EIA) report, the tunnel would cross three such fault lines or cracks.

She said the EIA report for PIL 1 warned that it could affect the stability of the iconic Kek Lok Si Buddhist Temple, the Air Itam Dam and the Penang Hill railway complex.

“Imagine, when you are tunnelling through and you hit a fault (line). The water that has long seeped into the fault lines will gush into the tunnel.

“I know people will say there are engineering methods to solve this. But even before you can put in engineering reinforcement, you might have water and mud gushing in,” Kam told participants of a talk hosted by the Penang Forum here today.

The PIL 1 project will connect a suburb close to Gurney Drive in the north of Penang island to the airport in the south.

The highway will have a 10km section with four tunnels separated by viaducts and elevated roads, which will be “drilled and blasted” through the hill slopes of Penang Hill, Paya Terubong and Sungai Ara.

The state government is adamant that the tunnels are a better option than elevated structures that will necessitate the cutting down of trees and the evacuation of residents along the route.


Geospatial expert Kam Suan Pheng speaking at a briefing organised by NGO Penang Forum in George Town today.

Air Itam dam

Kam said the cracks would not just affect the tunnelling process but would also have a domino effect on the Air Itam Dam, which was constructed as an earth dam 56 years ago and is extremely fragile.

She said with the dam perched at 235m above sea level, the slightest movement would bring gallons of water gushing down to the Air Itam valley, possibly affecting all people in its path.

She said this was based on red flags from the EIA report, indicating that “collapse and subsidence” may occur as a result of tunnelling through the fragile areas near the fault lines.

The EIA report in question states that “areas intersecting with fault zones are highly fractured and vulnerable to collapse”.

The report also says tunnelling work may damage nearby condominiums, the Kek Lok Si Temple, the Air Itam Dam and even the Bukit Bendera (Penang Hill) complex.

Kam said in the 1,195-page EIA report, there was no single mention of the stability of the granitic bedrock they were planning to tunnel through and the impact of underground water flow.

She said the report, however, had advised a detailed study of the fault lines along the tunnel alignment near the hills so that a “refined, safe route” could be found.

“What the EIA does not say is, what if the safe route cannot be found? And the project would have started, with money ploughed in already.

“Even if a safe route was found, they make no mention at what cost.”

‘What to do with 750,000 lorry-loads of debris?’

In a blow-by-blow analysis of the EIA report, Kam found the report to be highly unsatisfactory as there was no proper risk analysis.

She said there was dubious data, assumptions and unverifiable claims in the report.

Until now, she added, traffic and social impact studies were yet to be made public.

Kam said the EIA report made no mention about rock debris caused by drilling and blasting through the hills.

Based on her calculation, she said an estimated 2.5 million cubic metres of rock debris would need to be carried away.

“That is 750,000 lorry-loads of five-tonne lorries. There is no mention on how this debris would be managed in the three- to four-year period to build the tunnel.

“And what access roads would they use? Presently, there are very narrow and dangerous roads that you might have to take to get there. Can you imagine these five-tonne lorries going through them?”

Air and sound pollution

Kam said the air pollution projection from the project was also questionable, with a nitrous oxide reading of just below 2 micrograms per cubic metre (ʊg/m3) in the George Town area.

She said government statistics show 18-25 ʊg/m3 in the Gelugor area, while the Kuala Lumpur metropolitan area was in the range of 18 to 94.

Kam said when the EIA pollution data was referred to an expert in Oxford University, the response was that the 2 ʊg/m3 was “only likely in places far away from human civilisation”.

“The predicted air quality is better than reality,” she said.

She said the rainfall data used historical data, and did not take into account climate change and sudden bouts of heavy rain which had caused flash floods in Penang before.

Calvin,
Good move..
Local JB people not likely to buy property at this economy situation. Those outstation would only rent a hse or a room.
JB property prices are depending on foreign investor especially Singaporean. But current transport and traffic is one of the main issue that hinders property ownership in jb.

Posted by calvintaneng > 2018-10-07 21:06 | Report Abuse

Feimah is correct.

Last time same thing happened to KL and PJ in the 1960s.

There was no FEDERAL HIGHWAY then. So there was a long and winding narrow road from KL to PJ. by following the way beside Sg Klang

But after FEDERAL HIGHWAY FROM KL TO PJ AND PORT KLANG WAS BUILT TRAVELLING THERE IS A BREEZE AND PJ PROPERTIES ROSE UP TO MATCH KL

SO IF THE RTS AND OTHER TRANSPORT BETWEEN SPORE AND JB EASE UP....THEN JB SHOULD DO WELL LIKE PJ

Posted by TakeProfits > 2018-10-07 22:26 | Report Abuse

Finally, a real nice start up discussion from Calvin. Yes transport to and from jb to spore needs to be solved. Is there a chance spore govt keep on renewing those spore hdb leases by 50 years and another 50 years later on. If spore govt has foresight to take care of their citizens!! There may be some value in hdb flats if spore gomen keep on renewing hbd leases, but whether prices of hdb flats will.skyrocket is another question mark.

Can anyone tell.me, if spore gomen likely to renew,those leases, which I think is a good thing to do FOR THEIR CITIZENS. THE SPORE GOVT WON'T SIMPLY ASK HDB OWNERS TO LEAVE AND BULLDOZE THISE FLATS. IT'S NOT IN SPORE GOVT DNA TO MISTREAT THEIR CITIZENS.
