What’s The Priority For The New Works Minister?

The new Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi will have his hands full. One of his top priorities include ensuring the completion of Pan Borneo Highway in Sarawak and Sabah. Additionally, the condition of federal roads in the country remains in focus where in September, the works ministry announced that an allocation of 3.4 billion ringgit is needed to repair damaged federal roads throughout peninsular Malaysia. What role does the Works Ministry play in the development of infrastructure in the country? For insights we speak to Dr Ahmad Farhan Mohd Sadullah, Professor of Transport Engineering, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
