LETTER | Without credible impact assessments, PSM is concerned the project will potentially harm our ecology and geological heritage.

| Parti Sosialis Malaysia welcomes the Pakatan Harapan government’s efforts to enhance public transport when they decided to revitalise the East Coast Rail Link as a means to connect the east coast and west coast of Malaysia that will reduce travel time greatly.

Instead, we should consider a surface railway track from Mentakab to Karak parallel to the Federal Route 2 , whereby from Karak, the ECRL could either: By utilising the existing Federal Routes, the construction route could be minimised, reducing impact on the sensitive region. The merging of ECRL operator, Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd, into Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad will reduce the project’s price tag. Post-merger, the ECRL could utilise KTM’s Port Klang tracks, Electric Train Service coaches, maintenance depot, ticketing system and cargo handling equipment reducing development cost.

New ECRL route without Gombak stop defeats its original purpose, says Najib | Malay MailKUALA LUMPUR, April 13 — Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak today said that the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government’s revised  East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) deal had missed its true objectives. Najib, through a Facebook post, mocked the updated ECRL route that now omits the Gombak... apa original purpose bossku NajibRazak... sakau komisen semaksimum yg mungkin? NajibRazak the original plan was to fraudulently siphon $30 billion out to plug the huge fraud caused hole in 1MDB/SRC. Sorry, PH govt upset those crooked plams! Try harder from Bamboo River Resort soon! He thought he is smart but no so. He forgot people can take the MRT to Kajang and Putrajaya to catch the ECRL. Guess this is something he never thought off.
