PENANG: No wireless project if it’s proven bad for health
By Audrey Dermawan

2008/10/05

Penang will not continue with the free Wireless@Penang broadband project if there is scientific proof to show that the health of the people will be adversely affected Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said the state government was prepared to widen its consultations to include holding public forums with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and members of the public who were uneasy about the health risks posed by the use of free wireless connections to the Internet.
“Public consultation is a continuing process even after a project is announced.
“We believe in accountability. We are open to cancelling the free wireless project, which is aimed at providing free WiFi connection to the entire state within 24 months, if NGOs or any party can show incontrovertible evidence that there are harmful health risks,” he said in a statement today.

YB Lim, I thought you guys like and admire the style of Singapore government’s administration very much? Don’t you ever hear of Wireless@SG? People here have been enjoying free wireless connection for over 1 year already! Just book an air ticket and fly here to consult the experts here, hold forum for what? By the way, remember to book economy class.

Sibeh talk cock, if there is any health risk, you think the nation famous of kiasu and kiasi will allow?

Sorry to any fans of Mr Lim. Seriously, the more I saw him talk, in charge of Penang, the more I feel that he is becoming NATO, No Action Talk Only.
