Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, who is under siege over his purchase of a bungalow on Jalan Pinhorn, Penang, decided to invite the press to the property in question.

During a press conference in Komtar today, Lim was asked when he would be inviting the press to his house for a tour.

He replied, "Let's go now."

Later, at his home on Jalan Pinhorn, Lim escorted the media to his living room, dining hall and kitchen.

The built-up area of the house - which has five rooms - is about 4,000 sq ft.

Lim is facing accusations from Umno that he had bought the bungalow at RM2.8 million below market value.
