Wee Ka Siong- ECRL 3.0 alignment will cost RM50 billion

With the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project 3.0 alignment, Transport Minister Wee Ka Siong said the megaproject will cost RM50 billion in taxpayers' funds.

This, he contended, was the cheapest when compared to both BN and Pakatan Harapan’s proposed tracks.

At a press conference this morning, Wee showed how the latest “ECRL 3.0” alignment would cost less and carry more cargo. He also said it would have a less negative impact on local communities and the environment.
