KUALA LUMPUR: MyHSR Corp and Land Transport Authority of Singapore will hold an industry briefing on tenders for the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High Speed Rail (HSR) project on July 5.
The briefing will share key features of the HSR project, as well as indicative AssetsCo (assets company) tender parameters and technical specifications.
It will also provide the market details on the next steps of the AssetsCo tender, which will be held in an open, fair and transparent manner, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan said in a statement today.
“Throughout Malaysia’s HSR journey to date, the government has received requests and expression of interests from the industry as well as from the local value chain.
“This industry briefing provides an avenue for dialogue and feedback between both the governments and the industry. Therefore, I would urge all interested parties to participate in this briefing and provide feedback to the working teams,” Rahman added.
The HSR project, he said, while complex and extensive, will generate huge socio-economic impact arising from the increased connectivity and travel efficiencies.
“As the project gathers speed, more announcements will be made to keep the market informed of the project’s progress and to prepare the market to allow for active participation from all parties.
The HSR is expected to start operations in 2026.
