Probe ex-city councillor and Phang link, says Penang Umno

Phang-Li-KoonGEORGE TOWN: A Penang Umno leader wants police to investigate the link between a former city councillor and businesswoman Phang Li Koon, the previous owner of a bungalow sold to Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng.

State Umno Youth vice-chairman Jasmin Noordin said Tan Chiew Choon, a former councillor with the Penang Island City Council is currently a senior manager with a foreign employment agency co-owned by Phang.

“We want police to investigate the Tan and Phang connection.

“Phang holds a 20 per cent share with Windbond Management & Consultant Sdn Bhd.

“The remaining 80 per cent share is held by a Tang Yong Chew, who in turn holds a 70 per cent share in Kuala Lumpur International Dental Centre Sdn Bhd (KLIDC),” he said outside of the Pattani Road police station here today.

Jasmin did not elaborate on Tan and Phang’s links, saying instead he preferred to leave it to the police to investigate. He lodged a report at 9am.

KLIDC won the open tender bid for the 0.4 ha Taman Manggis government land in 2010 while Phang sold Lim the bungalow he was previously renting from her in Jalan Pinhorn, George Town for RM2.8 million, allegedly below market value.

In a recent Parliamentary sitting, Shabudin Yahaya, MP for Tasek Gelugor, quoted a figure of RM6-RM6.5 million for comparable houses.

Phang, in a statutory declaration following the revelation, said she had no links with Lim or his government, and did not receive any benefits from the state administration.

Lim meanwhile has also repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in the transaction.

Meanwhile, Tan told FMT that he would reserve his comments as he was not aware a police report had even been lodged.
