comments     Published     Updated

AUDIT REPORT The Railway Asset Management (PAK) has been rapped for paying its maintenance contractor almost RM100 million despite the electric trains operated by KTM Bhd missing part of the daily servicing over five months in 2012 and 2013.

These trains are the 38 sets of electric multiple units (EMU) operated by KTM Komuter.

To make matters worse, the fine that PAK imposed on the servicing company for its delay in providing replacement equipment was also calculated at less than what it should be - by RM1.447 million.
