Tolled highways come under the jurisdiction of the Malaysian Highway Authority , a government agency which reports to the Works Ministry.
Highway concession agreements are signed by MHA on behalf of the government with each concession holder. In the past, MoF was never involved in MHA matters. The agency reported to its minister, who then reported to the prime minister. As such, the turn of events in the issue of buying out four tolled highways appears to be out of the ordinary.
They are the decision maker,
Think another way. Maybe MHA uncooperative as staff may still be loyal to old govt as in many agencies now and trying to fast track MOF do the job themselves. As it is this proposal still need to get approval from cabinet so don’t be too sure it’s a go.
This is one of the very crucial factor why MOF plan shouldn’t be carried through. MOF has no jurisdiction to do this.
The little Napoleons from within pakatanharapan_. Even in sex scandals! Bravo to a New Malaysia.
New Malaysia, mah. V hv all-knowing aides; clueless Ministers; n Ministers who think they can hold larger role than jz d Ministry they helm.
