Mark Ooi is right in pointing out that LGE should not have given the impression that the current FDI deals in Penang are solely the success of the PR government.

“I met representatives of the workers and Sime Darby on Tuesday and they all agreed that the workers be provided with their agreed choice of house on the land,” he said in a statement here yesterday
