Cost-sharing likely for HSR

THE development cost high-speed rail (HSR) project linking Kuala Lumpur and Singapore could possibly be divided between the two governments based on geographical location of the project’s infrastructure.

Dividing the scope of responsibility that way is seen as the main way for Malaysia and Singapore to decide on how to split the huge investment required for the HSR project, which is reportedly more than RM38bil.
