KUALA LUMPUR: Light rail transit (LRT) operator Prasarana Malaysia Bhd is more concerned about the impact of the weak ringgit than the recently revised foreign worker levy on the cost of the upcoming RM9bil LRT 3.

President and chief executive officer Datuk Azmi Abdul Aziz brought this issue up as the LRT 3’s costing was done in 2013 when the ringgit was stronger.
