All talk, no action: Sanusi’s water threats ‘unbeneficial’, says Chow - superadmin - 01-03-2022 GEORGE TOWN – “All talk, no action” was how Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow described Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor’s approach towards the thorny water issue between the states. This comes as Sanusi recently appointed a panel of lawyers through consultants to resolve the issue, which has been ongoing for some time, as Penang awaits legal action. “My comment remains the same. We will see him in court,” said Chow. “We have been waiting. He talks to the press, but these updates are not beneficial to anyone. If he really wants this issue to be solved, then let’s go to court,” he told the press today. Chow added that Penang has its arguments ready, but whether the court process goes through will depend on the findings of the investigation conducted by the lawyers. He said that every party has its rights, and the matter should be settled based on existing laws. “As it is not a novel thing, especially in Europe, that one river can flow through many countries, this issue can be solved according to international laws and agreements seen from the many conventions held to manage the use of water.” - More -
