I was recently at the screening of a short documentary & talk on the planned artificial islands in the south of Penang. Seeing as many people aren't familiar with the issue, I thought I'd briefly summarise the project, its effects, and why we need to oppose it

#PenangTolakTambak
The project's raison d'être is fundraising for the Penang Transportation Master Plan (PTMP), meant to solve the island's traffic issues. By selling the new land to developers, the Penang govt expects to have enough to pay for the masterplan

The PTMP proposes a more effective public transport system including an undersea tunnel, LRT, monorail, trams, water taxies, and new highways. You can see the details on the website here
