The Malacca government plans to build the tallest telecommunications tower in Asean.

Chief Minister Idris Haron said Melaka ICT Holdings (Mitch) will be asked to prepare the feasibility studies on the 186-metre tower in two weeks time.

“It will be another landmark for Malacca apart from providing better telecommunications services for the people,” he told reporters in Malacca yesterday.

On another matter, Idris said the state government was also taking steps to revive the Telok Mas-Kuala Linggi coastal highway project.
