Big changes ahead for construction players


MRT3 axed: An MRT train moving towards Kajang from Kuala Lumpur on the Sungai Buloh-Kajang route. The new government recently announced it has scrapped the MRT3 project.

HARDLY a month since Pakatan Harapan formed the federal government, several big changes have already taken place - with many more in the pipeline.

Keeping to the promises under its election manifesto, the government quickly announced the zero-rating of the unpopular goods and services tax (GST), and then the scrapping of two mega projects – the KL-Singapore High Speed Rail and the MRT 3.
