Ensure ECRL project a catalyst for change in East coast, says Anwar


KOTA BHARU: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said there must be thorough planning done to ensure the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) Project is a catalyst for change in the East Coast region, especially in Kelantan.

"This is because among the major issues during our discussions with investors, including those from China, is the lack of attention to Terengganu (East Coast), and especially Kelantan on the issue of ports, even though there is no port (when the ECRL Project is completed) to facilitate, for example, the transportation of goods in Kelantan, whether agricultural or industrial.
