“Jagdeep’s undying efforts and good spirits is what we need in a local government exco member. He is easily one of the best and finest exco members in the country, and an example for others to follow,” he said.

This includes a RM200 million Projek Perumahan Rakyat (PPR) flats—where 1,000 units are to be built in five areas in Penang Island and Seberang Perai.
