Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has refuted allegations of corruption related to the sale of his house on Jalan Pinhorn to the 2012 sale of a state government piece of land in Taman Manggis to private developers who want to build a private hospital.

He was referring to the allegations made by Umno’s Tasek Gelugor MP Shabudin Yahya in Parliament yesterday, where the latter claimed that the Taman Manggis land was meant for low-cost housing.

Lim said Shabudin had implied that the low price of his house was part of a kickback.
