PETALING JAYA: Putrajaya today announced a reduction of RM21.5 billion in construction cost for Phase 1 and 2 of the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project.
It said the cost of construction for these phases was reduced from RM65.5 billion to RM44 billion following the signing of a supplementary agreement (SA) between Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd and China Communications Construction Company Ltd.
“(This) will pave the way for the resumption of the ECRL project,” the Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement today.
“The SA, which covered the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning aspects of the ECRL, was achieved after months of negotiations between the companies involved, as well as the governments of Malaysia and China.
“This reduction will surely benefit Malaysia and lighten the burden on the country’s financial position.”
The Pakatan Harapan government initially suspended the 688km ECRL project due to its high cost.
However, Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng recently said negotiations were going well, and that the project would continue if the cost of construction could be reduced to RM35 billion.
On Monday, Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali expressed hope that the negotiations would conclude before Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad leaves for China for the Belt and Road Forum, which begins on April 26.
KUALA LUMPUR: AmInvestment Research sees the revival of the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) as positive to both the construction and building material sectors but it is “no game-changer” to these industries.
It said on Friday the the additional demands for cement and steel bars only amount to 1% to 2% of the current annual consumption of cement and steel bars locally.
“Also, given the government’s strong commitment to fiscal prudence, we are concerned that this could be a 'zero-sum game' as the revival of the still massive ECRL may deprive the government of its ability to implement other infrastructure projects over the next four to five years,” it said in its report.
The report was issued after the Prime Minister's Office announced the ECRL project would go ahead but the cost has been reduced significantly by RM21.50bil to RM44bil – this was a 32.8% reduction in the earlier cost of RM65.5bil.
Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd (MRL) and the China Communications Construction Company Ltd (CCCC) had signed a supplementary agreement which would pave the way for the resumption of the ECRL.

Must learn to diversify... Steel counters usually related to construction... GLove on the other hand totally unrelated so yeahhh you know what I am trying to say lah!
wahhh what I mean is don't concentrate everything into one sector lah... Need to be careful also mah... impossible 50% steel 50% econpile... If ECRL go holland really portfolio go holland also.. Btw thanks for the info.. I didn't know the track need so much steel... Are you an engineer?
Let me have a look... I remember choivo boy said the debt level quite high... But being a consumer staple it should not be too high risk... I love food companies by the way! QL is one of my favourite... but PE a bit too high but I am quite confident with their Family Mart... The branch near my school always got people everyday
you are smart 2018-2019 still around. if you know the economics well not so easily holland. commodities price swung also will affect trades. those cost wont stay flat. actually quite huge risk, anytime a corp can go bust. they are smart to remove those underground track. (most profit)
underground track very expensive lah,... need to dig hole right? and then the substructure also very expensive...
Eh But Mflour NTA quite high compared to market price and dividend yield not bad too I will look at it more.. just that debt level a bit too high for me!
Very similar to chicken business, very thin profit margin but as long as the margin is positive I think it's a good sign.. need some time to study more on it.. Thanks for your recommendation I always love food company because people need to eat got money or not also need to buy food !
