Penang building 380m-long bridge to Silicon Island
Chow conducting a site visit to Silicon island. – Bernama GEORGE TOWN: A 380m-long bridge connecting southern Penang with Silicon Island will be built and is expected to open to the public by December 2028. Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said the four-lane bridge is a key component of the Pan-Island Link 2A (PIL2A) project, a strategic infrastructure initiative aimed at strengthening connectivity between Silicon Island and the Sultan Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah Bridge or the Second Penang Bridge, as well as supporting the state's long-term urban growth. He said construction work on the bridge would begin this month, with the first phase expected to be completed by mid-2027 to support the opening of the first factory to operate on Silicon Island in the same year. "The total cost of PIL2A phase one is RM390mil, covering the construction of 1.5km of infrastructure connecting the land area at Permatang Damar Laut to Silicon Island, including the construction of a 380m permanent bridge. "The components in PIL2A phase one will also connect Silicon Island with the Second Bridge at Batu Maung Roundabout and the Penang International Airport (LTAPP) through the construction of an elevated highway to improve connectivity," he told reporters after visiting Silicon Island to see the progress of development there, which has now reached 64.75ha. According to Chow, the contractor has completed the construction of a 378m temporary bridge to provide access for construction and infrastructure works on Silicon Island, which will have a community hub, including Medan Selera Matang, to be built at Permatang Damar Laut overlooking Silicon Island. He said the initiative is to ensure that those affected by the development project there, especially food stall traders, can be relocated, thus reflecting the state government's commitment and concern. "The development of the community hub on land covering approximately 0.8ha will also include a new Village Community Management Council hall, Fishermen's one-stop service centre, food stalls and restaurants, as well as a shed for fishermen," he said. Chow said to support the initial water supply needs of Silicon Island, a suction tank and pump house would be built on land adjacent to Medan Selera Matang, with construction work to commence in the third quarter of this year and expected to be completed by the end of 2027. Meanwhile, Penang Infrastructure Corporation Sdn Bhd chief executive Officer Datuk Seri Farizan Darus said that the total construction cost for the community facilities, pump houses and suction tanks is estimated at RM36mil. "This facility (community hub) is expected to be a vibrant new destination that will not only benefit residents, but also have the potential to attract more tourists, thus supporting tourism and the local economy," he said. Silicon Island, with a land area of 930.78ha, is a reclamation project owned by the Penang government. It marks the first time the state government is directly undertaking a reclamation project to ensure long-term economic growth. – Bernama

Gamalux Oils CEO calls for mandatory sustainable aviation fuel purchases by local airlines
Published on: Friday, June 06, 2025 Published on: Fri, Jun 06, 2025 By: Bernama Text Size: Usman said Malaysia has the industrial capacity and feedstock availability to support SAF production at scale, but policy intervention is needed to create demand certainty. Kuala Lumpur: Mandatory purchases of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) by local airlines at Malaysian airports are necessary to drive adoption and unlock the country's potential in the SAF sector, said Gamalux Oils Sdn Bhd chief executive officer Usman Ahmed. Usman said Malaysia has the industrial capacity and feedstock availability to support SAF production at scale, but policy intervention is needed to create demand certainty. Advertisement 'We have all the feedstocks such as used cooking oil, palm oil mill effluent, empty fruit bunch oil and spent bleaching earth oil. 'In my humble opinion, what Malaysia needs is a regulatory policy framework that enables SAF blending and mandates purchase by national airlines at all airports in the country,' he told Bernama after appearing on Bernama TV's The Nation programme titled 'The Future of Sustainable Aviation Fuel'. SAF is a low-carbon alternative to conventional jet fuel, produced from sustainable feedstocks, including used cooking oil and agricultural waste. Responding to concerns about the scalability of used cooking oil as a SAF feedstock, Usman affirmed its viability in substantial volumes. 'According to export data from the Malaysian Palm Oil Board, Malaysia exports approximately 600,000 tonnes of used cooking oil annually, a substantial volume that makes it a viable feedstock for any SAF production facility,' he said. While Malaysia does not currently have SAF production plants, Usman pointed out that pre-treatment and refining facilities are already in place. 'We export our products to companies such as BP, Eni of Italy, Neste of Finland, as well as other European and Asian firms, which convert them into tailor-made SAF. Regarding the SAF industry's value, Usman estimated that Malaysia exports around 1.5 million tonnes of SAF-grade or hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) feedstock annually. 'Based on current prices of around US$1,100 (US$1 = RM4.22) per tonne, we're looking at US$15 to US$18 billion worth of commodity products exported annually,' he said. Usman noted that while SAF is more expensive than conventional jet fuel, the cost impact on passengers would be modest if SAF blending is mandated. 'At the end of the day, the cost is borne by the passenger, possibly with some government subsidy, but we must recognise that this is for the greater good, as it supports the decarbonisation of aviation and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions,' he explained. Usman added that global geopolitical tensions and commodity price volatility continue to affect the SAF price gap, making regulatory certainty even more vital. He said Malaysia is on the right track with the government's National Energy Transition Roadmap and its 2050 net-zero emissions target already in place, adding that a regulatory policy framework to support SAF blending would further strengthen the country's progress. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
