ALOR STAR – The Kedah state assembly session this morning got rancorous when Menteri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor claimed that Penang is a state leased from Kedah and therefore should not criticise its neighbour for its affairs.
Sanusi (Jeneri-PAS) said he understood Penang’s concerns over several major projects announced by Kedah which are thought to give it competition.
However, he said it should be remembered that Penang was leased, and it should not interfere or criticise the affairs of the administration of Kedah.
“Penang is not a state that exists by itself. According to the history of the country, Penang is a state leased from Kedah.
“If we lease someone’s land and then we become angry with the landlord we lease it from, that is not appropriate,” he said.
