Penang folk, NGOS will continue to protest against PSR project - Pemikir

“NGOs and the people of Penang who oppose the PSR also will not be satisfied even though the environmental impact assessment (EIA) approval for the project has been revoked because the decision is based on technical inaccuracies or errors and these can be rectified. Fundamental issues related to the socio-economic and environmental impact of the PSR project have yet to be debated.”

Proponents of PSR project must submit new EIA report

Department of Environment (DOE) director-general Wan Abdul Latiff Wan Jaffar said the new EIA report must be submitted and processed as required under Section 34A of the Environmental Quality Act 1974 (Act 127).
