KUALA LUMPUR: Mega projects which have been approved by the previous government and have achieved 5 per cent implementation will be continued, says Works Minister Baru Bian.

However, Baru said projects which have yet to meet five per cent implementation would be reviewed according to a circular outlined by the Finance Ministry.

“So projects below five per cent implementation will be reviewed. Projects achieving five per cent will go on..We will look accordingly at critical projects such as food supply, medicine supply or roads with many accidents,” he said.

He told reporters this at a media conference after chairing a ministry committee meeting on Construction Industry Transformation Programme (CITP) 2016-2020 here yesterday.

With regard to the progress on CITP, Baru said he was happy with the achievement so far. — Bernama
