Loke says RTS suspended to work on important agreements


KUALA LUMPUR: The suspension of the Johor Baru-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link project to April next year is to allow for important agreements to be amended and inked, says Transport Minister Anthony Loke.

Malaysia requested the six-month extension not to review the project but to ensure that three agreements can undergo the necessary amendments before being signed by April 30, 2020, he said.
