The proposal to build a railway linking Sarawak-Kalimantan requires high-level discussions between Malaysian and Indonesian governments.
Transport Minister Datuk Seri Lee Kim Shin stated that his ministry is aware of the proposal made by Stakan assemblyman Datuk Hamzah Brahim, during the State Legislative Assembly session.
Meanwhile, the ministry is also collaborating with the Indonesian Consulate General’s office to establish a new cross-border bus route from Kuching to Singkawang in Kalimantan, through the Biawak-Aruk Immigration, Customs, Quarantine, and Security (ICQS) border checkpoint.
