CONSTRUCTION Sector report Toll hikes: NPV neutral impact 15 Oct 2015 OVERWEIGHT Mak Hoy Ken (Maintained) [email protected] 03-2036 2294 Rationale for report: Sector update Investment Highlights Higher toll rates from 15 October. The local press reported that toll charges for 18 highways in Malaysia will be raised between RM0.10 and RM3 effective from today. Out of this total, 12 are major highway concessions operating within the Klang Valley: Kuala Lumpur-Karak (KLK) Expressway, Maju Expressway (MEX), Kajang Dispersal Link Expressway (SILK), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE), Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART), KL-Kuala Selangor Expressway (LATAR), Sungai Besi Highway (BESRAYA), New Pantai Expressway (NPE), Kajang Seremban Highway (LEKAS), Damansara Puchong Highway (LDP), Western Kuala Lumpur Traffic Dispersal Scheme (SPRINT) and Cheras- Kajang Highway (Grand Saga). Other highways that follow suit include the South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE), Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), Kemuning Shah Alam Highway (LKSA), Ampang Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Senai Desaru Expressway (SDE) and Butterworth Outer Ring Road (LLB). Status quo for PLUS-owned highways. Altogether, toll rates for all eight highways under government-backed PLUS Expressway Bhd remained unchanged at this juncture. They are the North South Expressway (NSE), New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE), Federal Highway Route 2, Seremban Port Dickson Highway, North South Expressway Central Link (ELITE), Second Link Malaysia Singapore (Linkedua), Butterworth Kulim Expressway (BKE) and Penang Bridge. Part of fiscal consolidation moves. We believe this is part of Malaysian government’s move to meet its budget deficit target of 3.2% for 2015 (2014: 3.5%) and support its sovereign rating amid a challenging global economic backdrop. -

Regan (eds.), Financing ASEAN Connectivity, ERIA Research Project Report FY2013, No.15.Jakarta: ERIA, pp.167-218. CHAPTER 5 Malaysia Country Report Saadiah Mohammad Universiti Teknologi MARA, Malaysia Introduction As a country, Malaysia represents one of the success stories in the ASEAN in terms of its top-down political commitment to the five-year economic plans. For one, a sizeable government budget is allocated every year for its infrastructure activities. Malaysia is now an upper middle-income country served in most parts by good quality roads and expressways and a system of communication comparable to that of any developed, high-income country in the world. Many of its indicators on infrastructure have reached world-class standards, although there are still disparities in terms of total coverage and quality of infrastructure especially between West Peninsular Malaysia and its eastern counterpart states of Sabah and Sarawak. For years, Malaysia had not relied much on external sources of infrastructure financing since the government for many years had always managed to source funds internally. However, this also meant that government expenditure has increased tremendously over the years as population, urbanisation, and economic growth continue to put increasing demands on infrastructure. Since the 1980s, the government has considered the privatisation option—i.e., inviting the private sector as its partner in public-private partnership (PPP) projects—in its attempt to reduce government's burden in sourcing. -
Adcps Guiding Intelligent Decisions on Malaysia's SMART Tunnel Project
Application Note SonTek, a Xylem brand • XA00042 Accoustic Doppler Current Meters GUIDING INTELLIGENT DECISIONS ON MALAYSIA’S SMART PROJECT At 11.8 meters in diameter and 12 km in length, Kuala Lumpur’s SMART tunnel and its associated holding ponds can capture up to 4 million cubic meters of floodwater and divert it away from flood-prone downtown. Situation The awe-inspiring scope of Malaysia’s Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART) Project – 12 kilometers of tunnels 11.8 meters in diameter, capturing up to 4 million cubic meters of floodwater – staggers the imagination. The concept of a tunnel that detours traffic under crowded Kuala Lumpur streets during dry weather and shunts stormwater safely beneath downtown during flood events is as exciting as it is creative. But behind the massive tunnels and the huge catch basins is a system just as staggering – the SMART Project’s nerve system, a network of flood detection equipment and automated management machinery linked by a Supervisory Data Acquisition and Control (SCADA) brain that uses the information it gathers to automatically engage flood management gates and pumps. Technology Designed by systems integrator Greenspan Technology Pty Ltd., the flood detection and automated management system relies on 28 remote monitoring stations to guide decisions on 31 gates, seven huge pumps, and four independent generator setups (gensets) along the project. Three-Stage System The SMART Project is designed to operate in three stages to keep floods like the 2007 event from crippling the city, explains Bruce Sproule, Singapore-based International Manager for Greenspan.

Understand Costs for Government to Take Over Highway Concessions - Dr M BERNAMA 25/02/2019
Understand costs for government to take over highway concessions - Dr M BERNAMA 25/02/2019 KLANG, Feb 25 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has urged the public to understand the costs that have to be borne by the government to take over highway concessions from the concessionaires. He said this was important because the process of acquiring highway concessions involved the people's money, collected via taxes. “The government needs to buy a highway, but with whose money? It’s the money from tax collected from the people...Then the roads, which must be maintained from time to time, (costs for them) will also be borne by the government and no longer by the concession companies. “This also means that some of the taxes we collected must be used to maintain the roads, depriving the government of money for other projects that are also necessary,” he said at a press conference after officiating a Metrod Holdings Bhd plant here, today. Dr Mahathir said this in response to public criticisms after the government issued a statement on talks with Gamuda Berhad to take over four highway concessions that the company had a majority stake in, namely the Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS), Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP), Sprint Expressway and the Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART Tunnel). Among the criticisms were that the government did not take over the highway concession from PLUS Malaysia Bhd and for introducing ‘congestion charges’ instead of the outright abolition of tolls. According to a statement issued by the Prime Minister’s Office on Saturday, the government intends to abolish the existing toll mechanism when it successfully takes over the concession of the four expressways. -

Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 5(6): 949-956, 2011 ISSN 1991-8178 Greater Kuala Lumpur's Public Transport: Government Initiatives and Stakeholders Response 1Abd Rahim Md Nor, 2Nor Ghani Md Nor, 1Mokhtar Jaafar 1School of Social, Development and Environmental Studies, Faculty of Social Science and Humanities, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia. 2School of Economics, Faculty of Economics and Management, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia. Abstract: Since public transport plays a crucial role in metropolitan areas, it is important to learn more about how cities plan their public transport systems and to examine how people perceive public transport as a travel alternative, how they use it and how better and more frequent use can be achieved. Lack of knowledge among public transport users of what is being planned for them is a barrier to high levels of public transport use. This paper examines the latest development in the ways the city authorities in Greater Kuala Lumpur introduce innovative initiatives to enhance public transport system and how stakeholders responded to it. Greater Kuala Lumpur refers to the immediate areas beyond the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur boundaries, covering huge conurbation, extending from Kuala Lumpur to major population centers in the peripheries. This study found that The multimodal public transport system currently serving the cities in the conurbation is far from the desirable standard in term of availability, frequency, punctuality and rolling stock. Since 2009 the government has embarked on a series of measures to improve public transport services through fast-track planning and massive funding, aiming to increase public transport patronage in the conurbation from only 12% in 2008 to 25% in 2012 and finally 50% in 2020. -

Twentyfive.7 Luxura.Pdf
When we create a place, we create a personality What makes a place unique? It’s really about mindful planning. It’s about breaking away from the monotony of conventional design, and creating inspiring spaces that seamlessly blend the indoors with the outdoors. A place where you can reconnect with people, with nature or even just with yourself. A place where you’ll experience a real difference and want to be a part of it. A town is community. Life at twentyfive.7 is more than just about beautifully crafted homes, it’s about the community that will call this place home. That’s why when we designed this town, we thought of not just the home place. We also thought of the park place, work place, gathering place, play place, shopping place and eating place. We focus on creating living spaces that bring the community here closer together. When people move in, they will get a feel for the place and want to call it home. Artist’s impression only When we get the places right, the town works. In our masterplan for this 257-acre township, we looked at the land and the best ways to enhance it. We were mindful to ensure that the community here will have life’s essentials close to home while being embraced by nature’s beauty. So, we created The Quayside, a lifestyle waterfront hub that is designed to be the new vibrant pulse of the community. A trendsetting lifestyle destination that is set to make twentyfive.7 the most desirable residential address in Kota Kemuning well into the future.
