Ahmad Maslan upset over poor maintenance of Jalan Telupid-Sandakan

Ahmad Maslan (left) briefed on the Marwilla 2 jetty project by deputy commander of Naval Region 2, First Admiral Ivan Mario Andrew (right) in Sandakan today.-Bernama photo SANDAKAN (Aug 4): Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan today expressed dissatisfaction over the poor maintenance of the road from Telupid to Sandakan, saying it had caused great inconvenience to the people. He said that although the road formed part of the Pan Borneo Highway project, the contractor was still responsible for its maintenance, as stipulated in the contract. 'Under the contract, they (the contractor) are required to maintain the road in areas where the highway is under construction and ensure it remains in good condition, not in its current poor state. 'Yesterday evening, I travelled along the road in Work Package 29 from Moynod to Sapi Nangoh. I was disappointed and upset to see its condition. It's causing inconvenience to the people. This project should make life easier for the people, not cause them distress,' he said. He said this to reporters after inspecting the progress of the Naval Region 2 Headquarters (MAWILLA 2) jetty construction project here today. Ahmad also shared that during his trip to Sandakan on Monday, his bodyguards had recorded four videos showing the damaged road conditions, which were later forwarded to the Works Ministry's top management. He said three stretches along the route had drawn public complaints due to poor maintenance, namely, Jalan Sandakan Batu 32-Moynod (WP28), Jalan Moynod-Sapi Nangoh (WP29), and Jalan Sapi Nangoh-Sungai Baoto (WP30). Ahmad said he had instructed the Public Works Department to conduct regular site visits to monitor the progress of the Pan Borneo Sabah Highway Phase 1A project and observe the difficulties faced by road users, with verbal or written warnings to be issued to the contractors involved when necessary. He stressed that the Works Ministry could appoint a third party to carry out maintenance on damaged roads caused by the construction of the Pan Borneo Sabah Highway Phase 1A if the contractor failed to do so, with the cost to be deducted from the contract value. 'For example, if the cost of repairs is RM5 million and the main contractor was awarded a RM300 million contract, the contractor would only receive RM295 million, while RM5 million would be paid to the third party,' he said. Ahmad added that the contract contained clauses on scheduled maintenance, protection of existing infrastructure, temporary diversions, traffic signage and safety measures. – Bernama

Ahmad Maslan criticises poor maintenance of Telupid-Sandakan road

SANDAKAN: Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan has voiced strong dissatisfaction over the poor maintenance of the Telupid-Sandakan road, a segment of the Pan Borneo Highway project. He emphasised that contractors are contractually obligated to ensure road usability during construction. 'Under the agreement, they must maintain roads in construction zones properly. The current state is unacceptable and burdens the public,' Ahmad told reporters after inspecting the Naval Region 2 Headquarters jetty project. He shared that his team documented severe road damage in four videos, forwarded to the Works Ministry for review. Three critical stretches have drawn public complaints: Jalan Sandakan Batu 32-Moynod (WP28), Jalan Moynod-Sapi Nangoh (WP29), and Jalan Sapi Nangoh-Sungai Baoto (WP30). Ahmad has directed the Public Works Department to intensify monitoring and issue warnings to non-compliant contractors. The ministry reserves the right to appoint third-party maintenance if contractors fail repairs, deducting costs from their contracts. 'For instance, if repairs cost RM5 million, the contractor's payment will be reduced accordingly,' he explained. Contract terms include mandatory upkeep, safety signage, and infrastructure protection. - Bernama

The two lorries involved in the accident at Km372.1 of the North-South Expressway (southbound) near Slim River. (Fire and rescue department pic) PETALING JAYA : Two people were killed and two others injured in a collision involving two lorries, at Km372.1 of the North-South Expressway (southbound) near Slim River, Perak, today. Perak fire and rescue department assistant director (operations) Sabarodzi Nor Ahmad said they were informed about the crash at about noon, Bernama reported. A team from the Slim River fire and rescue station was sent to the scene, 10km away. Four people – a driver and three assistants – were in one of the lorries, transporting eggs, which crashed into the rear of a trailer lorry loaded with cement, parked by the road shoulder. Sabarodzi said the duo, both in their 20s, were thrown out from the lorry and died at the scene. The other two, aged 40 and 30, sustained minor injuries and were taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. It took nearly two hours to clear the road, causing traffic congestion.
