KUCHING, Aug 3: The Federal Transport Ministry will soon conduct a feasibility study on the viability of a railway system in Sarawak as the State has yet to have a rail network.

He said current, the ministry is at the preliminary stage where the Sarawak Transport Ministry is discussing the issue with the Federal government.

He said the Federal government is fully supportive of the vision and implementation of the Sarawak Transportation Masterplan and it is the hope of the Federal government that Sarawak succeeds in managing a better transportation network. — DayakDaily
