Penang 2017 New Year Message By Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng In Komtar, George Town On 1.1.2017.<\/p>\n
The Penang State Government Will Continue To Revive And Revitalised Past Abandoned Or Failed Projects In the Services Sector Especially Tourism, To Be The Main Economic Driver In 2017.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Penang state government will continue to revive and revitalised past abandoned or failed projects in the services sector especially tourism, to be the main economic driver in 2017. Even though manufacturing sector will play an important role in our economy, its contribution to Penang\u2019s GDP last year has dropped to 45% compared to 50% for the services sector.<\/p>\n Moreover, 2017 will be a even more challenging year following the the shock election of US President Donald Trump, whose golden rule, especially on global economy and trade, is that there are are no more rules. Donald Trump is intent on keeping and creating job in US and punishing American companies who move out of US by imposing tariffs on their products sold in US.<\/p>\n There is a need for Penang to adapt to these fast-changing geo-political developments. In view of uncertainty relating to US companies\u2019 new manufacturing investments in Penang, there is a need to consider alternatives and new game-changers such as the services sector, especially tourism and art as new economic drivers.<\/p>\n As a first step, the Penang state government has launched tourism initiatives encompassing both new new green field projects and reviving abandoned and failed brown field projects. Some of new green field projects include:- A more significant success is the revival of abandoned and failed projects by the previous BN government(brown fields) such as:- The singular success of Penang state government in reviving the previous government\u2019s failed projects is highlighted by Komtar\u2019s RM200 million new look. The previous government had wanted to abandon Komtar for dead by escaping to Bayan Mutiara\u2019s new administrative center. However, the new Penang state government in 2008 decided to stay put and fight, to revive Komtar through a unique public private people partnership.<\/p>\n Only our political opponents refuse to see the value and success of turning around their failed projects by bringing dead projects back to life. Who are the real frogs who live under the coconut husk(katak di bawah tempurung) by such continuous denial of facts and ignorance of reality?<\/p>\n The Penang state government will also explore new initiatives to expand medical tourism in our pursuit to establish Penang as a medical city and reinforce Penang\u2019s position in commanding more than 50% of Malaysia\u2019s medical tourism receipts. In pursuing these objectives in line with Penang as an entrepreneurial state, the state government will also work in parallel towards Malaysia\u2019s first welfare state that is clean, green, safe and healthy.<\/p>\n Only then can we wish a Happy New Year 2017 to all 1.6 million Penangites.<\/p>\n LIM GUAN ENG <\/p>\n —-Mandarin —<\/p>\n
