In his welcoming remarks, Mr. Ahmad Khairuddin Abdul Rahim, Deputy Chief Executive Officer II of MIDA said, “MIDA is optimistic that through the EAPs, this rail project will contribute towards bridging the development gap between the east and west coasts of Peninsular Malaysia, given the potential growth for industrial, commercial and tourism sectors in the region.
