No pressure on KTMB to vacate HQ, says Transport Minister

KUALA LUMPUR: The Transport Ministry has never directed or pressured for the more than century-old headquarters of Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) to be vacated and relocated, as some parties claim, says its minister.

Anthony Loke stated that instead, the Railway Assets Corporation (RAC), as the owner of the building, offered KTMB to move to Menara RAC, which was completed last year on Jalan Tun Sambanthan, Brickfields, free of charge.
