Open tender for HSR PDP job a positive sign


Direct negotiation: The PDP for the MRT1 and MRT2 projects, MMC-Gamuda, was appointed via direct negotiation.

THE expression of interest from two powerful groups vying for the role of project delivery partner (PDP) for the ambitious Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high-speed rail (HSR) project should bode well for all stakeholders.

The fact that it is being done via an open tender is a positive sign for the industry, and the intense competition is expected to bring out the best from the companies vying for the job.
