Citing limited funds, Penang Telecommunications Task Force chairman Jeff Ooi said the state resources were too limited to extend the service to Kepala Batas, Tasek Gelugor and Nibong Tebal.
Former Prime Minister Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi is the MP of Kepala Batas while the MP for Tasek Gelugor is Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop.
Nibong Tebal MP Tan Tee Beng quit PKR last year and has joined Parti Kesejahteraan Insan Tanah Air (Kita).
“There is no point investing money in Kepala Batas, Tasik Gelugor and Nibong Tebal for now.
“If we have the resources, we will, but our resources are limited so we are focusing on the Pakatan-held constituencies,” Ooi, who is Jelutong MP, told reporters yesterday.
If the local people in the constituencies want WiFi, then they should vote for Pakatan, Ooi added.
He said the first phase of 750 hotspots had already been achieved and phase two of the project (to add another 750 hot spots) was expected to start by the end of the month.
Of the 750, already set up in the state, Ooi said Tanjung boosted of the best coverage with 321 hotspots, followed by Batu Kawan (110) and Bayan Baru (98).
Permatang Pauh has the fewest hot spots at a mere 10 while Balik Pulau and Bukit Gelugor have 13 and 20 respectively.
Ooi said phase two of the project was aimed at increasing the number of hotspots in the state by another 750 by the end of the year.

2. I am really tempted to suggest the above actions or rather reactions to the absurd steps taken by the current Penang government. This what you get when you voted in a party full of crap, idiosyncracies and hypocrites. Pretty sure there will be many who would jum on to the bandwagon at just the mere suggestion that the BN reciprocate revengefully especially in areas won by the PR.
Teach these ingrates a lesson. It's time to get tough in so many other aspects and areas. The fact we have been too soft and over-accomodating is the cause for such callous and inconsiderate actions by many.
3. May I suggest the government of the day simply take drastic actions ,without fear or favour, against those going against the grain of good governence. PUNISH and TAKE ACTION.
