HSR land acquisition process has started: Najib

Kuala Lumpur

THE land acquisition process for the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High Speed Rail (HSR) has begun, said Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak on Tuesday, adding that a three-month public consultation for Malaysians to give feedback or raise concerns will be launched next month.

Mr Najib said MyHSR, the Malaysian delivery partner for the bilateral project, has submitted applications for land freezing, so that the viability of the pre-selected corridor can be studied.
