Can Malaysia Afford Its Rail Future?

Can Malaysia Afford Its Rail Future?

Published 7 months, 1 week ago
Description

Malaysia’s rail ambitions are back in the spotlight, not just what we build, but how it performs and what it costs. In the Klang Valley, Rapid Rail carries millions of passengers on core urban routes, even as financial losses persist. At the national level, the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) is nearing operations, raising fresh questions about how big rail projects should ultimately be priced. For perspectives on our rail system, we’ll be speaking to Dato' Dr. Ahmad Farhan Mohd. Sadullah, Vice Chancellor, Universiti Putra Malaysia.
