A prime parcel of reclaimed waterfront land near Gurney Drive has recently surfaced in the market, drawing attention from property observers and industry insiders. The site, measuring approximately 26 acres, is reportedly being marketed for sale by property agents as a potential large-scale mixed development opportunity in one of Penang Island’s most prestigious coastal corridors.

According to a listing circulated by real estate negotiators, the land is described as a freehold site zoned for commercial or mixed development, strategically positioned between Gurney Drive and Tanjung Tokong. The marketing materials suggest the site could accommodate a large-scale waterfront project comprising residential, commercial and hospitality components, potentially forming a new landmark development along the northern coastline of the island.

The listing places the asking price at RM1.8 billion, translating to approximately RM1,589 per square foot based on the stated land size. However, market observers believe the eventual transaction price could be significantly lower depending on negotiations and development parameters.

Separate reports from local media suggest that the land could realistically change hands at around RM900 to RM1,000 per square foot, implying a potential transaction value of around RM1 billion.

The Penang state government will discuss with the relevant authorities following reports that the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the proposed Jelutong landfill rehabilitation and reclamation project has been rejected by the Department of Environment (DOE).

Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said he was not aware of the rejection reflected on the EIA portal and would need to verify the information before commenting further.

“I am not aware of the matter yet. We will discuss it with the relevant authorities and obtain more information,” he said during a press conference at the Penang Skills Development Centre in Bayan Baru.

According to the DOE’s online portal, the EIA submission for the proposed project has been classified as “not approved”.

The RM1 billion proposal involves rehabilitating the former Jelutong landfill and reclaiming adjacent coastal land north of the Penang Bridge. The reclaimed land is intended to temporarily store waste excavated from the landfill before the area is eventually transformed into a mixed-use development.

The site spans about 65 hectares, comprising 36 hectares of the former landfill and 29 hectares of newly reclaimed land next to the Karpal Singh Drive waterfront.

The project was first formalised in 2020 when the Penang Development Corporation signed an agreement with PLB Engineering Bhd to undertake the rehabilitation and reclamation works. The works were expected to take four to five years to complete, although no visible work has commenced since the agreement was signed.

The proposal has faced opposition from residents and environmental groups, including those associated with the Protect Karpal Singh Drive Action Committee. The group recently urged the state government not to grant the developer additional time if the EIA was not approved.

Environmentalists have also expressed concerns that reclamation near the old landfill could impact public health and harm the nearby Middle Bank, a shallow coastal area known for its extensive seagrass beds and marine biodiversity.

The Middle Bank sanctuary covers about 10 square kilometres in the South Channel between Penang Island and the mainland and supports more than 400 species of flora and fauna, including endangered green turtles, dugongs, seahorses and the critically endangered horseshoe crab.

Previously, Chow said reclamation was necessary to provide sufficient space for the landfill rehabilitation works while ensuring the sensitive marine ecosystem at Middle Bank would not be affected. He added that the state government would take steps to avoid encroaching on the sanctuary area and consider public feedback received during the EIA process.

The Penang state government is currently focusing on land acquisition and the resettlement of residents affected by the implementation of the Mutiara Line Light Rail Transit (LRT) project.

Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow said work related to the project is progressing according to schedule, with the state government responsible for managing land acquisition matters and relocating affected residents before the sites are handed over to the contractor.

“At this stage, we see that various schedules have been set to complete the relocation process and hand over the site to the contractor,” he said when met at the Chinese New Year Banquet and Women’s Day Celebration organised by the Penang Chinese Women’s Chamber of Commerce (PWCC) yesterday.

Chow added that other aspects of the project, including engineering works and project contracts, are handled by the developer, Mass Rapid Transit Corporation (MRT Corp), together with the appointed contractor.

So far, only a small number of homes are affected by the project alignment.

“There are not many cases, only about a dozen houses because the project line enters the village next to the Road Transport Department (JPJ) office in Sungai Dua,” he said, noting that around 12 houses have been identified for relocation.

Construction of the Mutiara Line LRT began in 2025 and the line is expected to commence operations in December 2031.

The rail line will span approximately 29.67 kilometres, featuring 20 stations and two provisional stations. Once completed, it is expected to improve connectivity between Penang Island and the mainland while helping to reduce traffic congestion and enhance overall accessibility.
