The building contractor undertaking the construction works at the landslide site in Tanjung Bungah will be blacklisted by the Penang Island City Council (MBPP), Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said.

The site for the construction of 980 affordable housing units is being developed by Taman Sri Bunga Sdn Bhd, while the main contractor is BSG Global Builders Sdn Bhd, and the building contractor is Choongcons (Penang) Sdn Bhd.

Lim said the contractor, together with any consultant experts directly involved, would be blacklisted after the outcome of investigations by the State Commission of Inquiry.

"Until the Commission of Inquiry completes its work and issues its findings, the developer will not be allowed to start work on the affordable housing project," Lim said during his visit to the site in Lembah Permai today...
