CHIEF Minister Chow Kon Yeow has called the Penang Development Corporation (PDC) Telecommunication Services Sdn Bhd to work alongside other stakeholders in the state to deliver the best services to the people.
“The PDC Telco must cooperate with the local authorities in the state, namely the Penang Island City Council (MBPP) and the Seberang Perai City Council (MBSP).
“This is to ensure that the stakeholders can render any necessary assistance and insights to PDC Telco to uplift its services.
“All the stakeholders involved will provide valuable inputs to PDC Telco,” said Chow, who is the outgoing PDC Telco chairman, during the corporate dinner at Courtyard by Marriott in Macalister Road today.
Chow congratulated state Infrastructure, Transport and Digital Committee chairman Zairil Khir Johari, who will assume the new PDC Telco chairman role, replacing him.

PDC Telco acting chief executive officer Hasmunir Hamid said various telco structures have been built this year.
“We hope to have a better network for the people in Penang,” he said, adding that PDC Telco strives to improve in the future.
Among the distinguished guests present during the corporate dinner were Zairil, state Trade Entrepreneurial Development and Rural Development Committee chairman Rashidi Zinol, PDC chief executive officer Datuk Aziz Bakar, PDC Telco Board board members Datuk Tang Ching Siang, Mohammad Azhar Hamdan and Samsuri Abdul Jalil.
