"Penang is a state that faces bad traffic congestion. In order to reduce this problem, our coalition will introduce alternative forms of public transportation.

"If given the mandate, we will introduce the Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART)," Dominic said in his speech during the Perikatan Nasional (PN) Penang Manifesto launch at Hotel Seri Malaysia, Kepala Batas, today.

Dominic, who is also the Gerakan president, further elaborated that his coalition will promise to build more affordable housing priced below RM100,000 per unit.

"We will use a system to ensure all developers are required to build 30 per cent low-cost housing priced below RM100,000 for every housing project that they build," he added.
