Bandar Malaysia to include HSR


PUTRAJAYA: The revived Bandar Malaysia project will include the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High Speed Rail (HSR), although the actual HSR project has yet to be decided, said Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

“We will have a station for the HSR in Bandar Malaysia. We need to decide on a suitable speed. It may not necessarily be 400kmph... that might reach Alor Setar. We would like to spend less, scale it down and perhaps do some adjustments first, ” Dr Mahathir told reporters after a signing ceremony between TRX City Sdn BHD (TRXC) and the IWC-CREC consortium.
