Penang BN has criticised the state government and its joint venture project - Sandilands Foreshore - for offering inadequate compensation to about 30 of the 200 residents facing eviction from the land.

MCA Tanjong Youth chief Lim Swee Bok said the party received complaints from residents affected by the development, and after a meeting with them, are conveying their demands to the state government.

He said the residents complained that the compensation offered to them were not adequate especially for tenants of homes on the said land.
