Call to revive big-ticket infrastructure projects

Work in progress on LRT 3 project.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia could see greater economic expansion if it revives mega infrastructure projects post pandemic such as the high speed rail, especially for the purpose of carrying goods that will provide a multiplier effect across the supply chain.

According to Universiti Malaya entrepreneurship lecturer at the faculty of business and accounting associate Prof Aida Idris, such projects would be a boost for rural entrepreneurs to manufacture and market their products in the city and beyond.
