Email this to a friendForum On Hill Slope Project
FOLLOWING concerns about hillslope development in Penang, investPenang is organising a forum on the viability of hill land development for its ‘The CEO Speaks...’ series next week.
The forum, on Jan 16 at the Penang Skills Development Centre (PSDC) auditorium, will feature speakers from the property development and real estate industries, non-governmental organisations and the engineering field.
investPenang executive committee chairman Datuk Lee Kah Choon (pic) said the Bukit Antarabangsa landslide last month sounded a word of caution to Penang on hill land development.
“The reason for this forum is due to several factors like the need to protect Penang’s environmentally sensitive areas that include hill land over 76 metres or 250 feet above sea level with gradients over 25 degrees.
Lee also said Penang had not revised its density guidelines for 30 years and the urbanisation rate in the state had increased.
Among the key speakers at the forum are Henry Butcher Malaysia director Dr Teoh Poh Huat, IJM Properties (northern region) general manager Toh Chin Leong and Institution of Engineers Malaysia (Northern Branch) chairman Lim Kok Khong.
Dr Teoh will speak on the demand for property and the expectations of housebuyers in Penang while Toh will speak on his company’s mitigation works at hill slope development projects.
Lim will share his expert views in hill development.
The forum will be from 3pm to 5.30pm. The fee is RM50 per person.
For details and registration, call Sudirman Husani at 04-6268833 or email him at sudirman@investpenang.gov.my. Enquiries and registration forms can also be faxed to 04-6468811.
‘The CEO Speaks...’ series is sponsored by The Star, Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) and the Penang Development Corporation (PDC).
