PETALING JAYA: The progress of the Pan Borneo Highway will be hastened, with Phase One of the project in Sarawak estimated to be completed in 2023, says Senior Minister (Works) Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof. The Sarawak portion of the highway was only 53% completed, while progress was currently at 34% in Sabah, he said.

The Works Ministry is even exploring the possibility of appointing project management companies (PMCs) to supervise the mega project.
