PETALING JAYA: The weather in Perlis is suitable for the development of the solar energy sector, says Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The former prime minister, who is the unofficial adviser to the four-opposition led states collectively known as state government four , said the “hot weather” was one of Perlis’s “assets” to generate economic growth.“It is suitable to carry out large-scale solar energy projects,” he said in a statement today.

Mahathir also said Perlis has a lot of vacant land that could be used to plant teak trees, a suggestion he had made in the past.“If we were to focus on the teak industry, it would generate revenue for the state. But it is vital to improve our capacity and expand our current assets,” he said. Daily Express Malaysia
