BATU GAJAH (Bernama): The final report on the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project is paramount and must be thoroughly viewed before any decision can be made on going ahead with the project, says Transport Minister Anthony Loke.

"I think it is fair that we need a final report before we make any decision. The Chinese Ambassador (Bai Tian) mentioned that both sides have a working committee to negotiate before making any decision. So far, Malaysian companies have no final decision," he said after visiting the Rolling Stock Centre of the China Railway Rolling Stock Corp (CRRC) here.
