The Selangor state government’s decision to continue with a RM100 million modern pig farming project in the state was under fire for being insensitive to Muslims. The serious question arises: What is the alternative practical solution to overcome the issue if not the said project or otherwise?
However, Menteri Besar Khalid Ibrahim’s office in a four-page statement highligh that the project was approved by the previous BN-led state government on January 30, 2008.
The statement said it was the state government’s aim to ensure the successfulness of the project and it would be implemented fairly by taking into account the sensitivities of the various races.
"At the state government meeting on April 2, 2008, we found that it is appropriate to continue the project but the implementation process to be strengthened."
The new Pakatan Rakyat state government said its decision was in view of the fact that the site at Kuala Langat, near Sepang had been Selangor’s main pig-rearing area and had fulfilled the environmental standards set by the authorities.
This includes that discharges from the farm will be recycled in the form of bio-gas to generate electricity and water for farm cleaning, as well as for the cultivation of food for the pigs.
"At the same time, with this project, no new pig-rearing farms will be approved in Selangor as all other pig-rearing farms outside of this area will be moved into this modern pig farming project.”
"This is in line with the Agriculture and Agro-based Ministry’s policy to have all pig farms in one area to ensure easier monitoring by the authorities."

The Pakatan Rakyat continue the project approved by the previous BN-led state government on January 30, 2008,even the PAS supported it, so it look like that is a good solution to the existing problem.
