Union: Raise KTMB fares to keep company afloat

KUALA LUMPUR: The national railways union is demanding that KTM Bhd’s delayed rail fare increase be put back on track, warning that its services might suffer if that is not done.

Railwaymen’s Union of Malaya president Abdul Razak Md Hassan said the company was losing more than RM200mil a year and had to rely on emergency Government funds for help.
