Penang Government and the people were lucky. A piece of prime land at Rifle Range that was rumoured to have been transferred to someone by the name of Khairy was found to be untrue. The said land is 163,053 sq ft plot belonging to the Penang Island Municipal Council and at a market price of RM100 per sq ft it is worth some RM16.5 million.
5 former State Gerakan Exco members went to the district land office for a fact-finding mission but they failed to locate the land title. Suddenly someone informed State Local Government, Traffic Management and Environment Committee Chairman Chow Kon Yeow that the land title was found in the office of the State Land and Mines Department. Chow immediately went there and found it was there and in fact the ownership records still show that the land is still fully held by the Penang Municipal Council and not being transferred to anyone yet. Mr. Chow breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately Mr. Chow issued a statement of clarification so as to help Gerakan Koh Tsu Koon clear his name and also the clear the name of the man named Khairy.
Mr. Chow said that since the land had been leased by the state, the documents were in the care of the Land and Mines Department rather than the district office.
Everyone is much relieved and the State can have that piece of land back. Thank God and many thanks to the kind civil servant for ensuring that the document is put back in a safe and rightful place. Thanks also to the person who provide the timely information of the right location of the document. Many many thanks. God bless all of you.

TIMELY & LUCKY INTERVENTION, OTHERWISE... IT WILL JUST FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THOSE LAND-GRABBING B*STARDS FROM BN/UMNO.
Mahathir E-Government project kick start 7-8 years ago. Which are suppose to reduce this "missing" file problem and help the government locate culprits ASAP.
From Pentium 2 day, until now, quad core processor(10,000x more powerful than Pentium 2) are common. E-Government are yet to materialised.
The question remains:
Why the Title not in the hand of the City Council (MPPP?) but in the State Land Office? If, it is not in the stage of processing?
"There is no gold here！
That weights 300 Taels!"
When and How that piece of land was alienated for?
Residential or Recreational?
Reserved or subject to authority consent?
E-Strata Title was mentioned and promised by OKT at least in 2002/2003!
If they were all in computer, a lot of hanky panky would not have been there!!
