（布城20日讯）交通部同意重新审查5个合约总值近6亿5000万令吉的发展项目，以通过公开或有限招标落实。

交通部长陆兆福今日在文告中指出，这些项目已通过直接谈判批准采购，但尚未签发接受函。

所涉及的发展项目是彭亨铁路（文德甲-美拉坡）和吉兰丹铁路（话望生-道北）的斜坡加固和重建工程。

受影响的还有巴生谷双轨铁道（KVDT）项目第二期提升工程独立检查顾问（ICC）的委任、东海岸铁路 – 话望生至道北路段水灾破坏修复工程（配套C），以及东海岸铁路 – 金马士至文德甲路段铁路维修与提升项目（配套A）。

陆兆福说：“实行招标采购，亦符合新政府的承诺，即遏制直颁工程。”

PUTRAJAYA (Dec 20): The Transport Ministry has agreed to review five development projects with a total contract value of almost RM650 million so that they could be implemented via open or restricted tender.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook, in a statement on Tuesday (Dec 20), said these projects had been approved for procurement via direct negotiation but the letters of acceptance had not been issued yet.

The development projects involved include Stabilisation and Slope Re-Profile Works along the Pahang Railway Tracks (Mentakab-Merapoh) and Kelantan Railway Tracks (Gua Musang-Tumpat).

Also affected are the Appointment of Independent Checking Consultant (ICC) for the Klang Valley Double Tracking Upgrading Project (KVDT) Phase 2, East Coast Tracks — Rehabilitation of Gua Musang-Tumpat Tracks and Repairs for Flood Damage (Package C); East Coast Tracks – Gemas-Mentakab Track Repairs and Upgrading (Package A).

“This implementation of procurement by tender is also in line with the commitment of the new government to curb the practice of awarding tenders via direct negotiations,” Loke said.
