KL to JB ETS launches Aug 2025 — a new era for Singapore-Malaysia travel
After years of anticipation, and a few delays since construction first began back in 2017, you'll finally be able to hop aboard the Electric Train Service (ETS) from Kuala Lumpur to Johor Bahru via the Gemas – JB Sentral route starting Aug 2025. Currently, the diesel-powered train journey between KL and JB takes a sluggish 7 hours. But thanks to this RM9.5 billion electrified double-tracking project, that travel time will be slashed to just 4 hours and 30 minutes. Along the way, expect stops at these stations: Segamat, Kluang, Kulai, and JB Sentral. The trains will cruise along at speeds of up to 140km/h. Malaysia has also received its first ETS 3 train set, and it's designed with passenger comfort in mind. With 312 seats, onboard WiFi, USB charging ports, and generous luggage space, you're set for a cosy journey. This development marks the final phase of the West Coast rail electrification project, first launched in 2011 under the administration of former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak. The government continues to prioritise this transformative project alongside the Johor Bahru – Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link, which is scheduled to open by Jan 2027, according to Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi. About 3K passengers will travel between Johor Bahru and Kuala Lumpur every day once the service is up and running. Meanwhile, as RTS construction picks up steam, citizens should take note: the Jalan Johor Bahru–Endau road will be fully closed from 3 Jun 2025 to 31 Dec 2026. Key roads affected include Jalan Tun Abdul Razak (towards Danga Bay), Jalan Station, Jalan Wong Ah Fook, and Jalan Lingkaran Dalam. Drivers on Jalan Tun Abdul Razak 1 can reroute via the road in front of Masjid Habib Hassan Al-Attas, make a U-turn near Danga City Mall, and then turn left onto Jalan Lingkaran Dalam. Let's hope there will be no more delays this time so we can all enjoy travelling without having to buy a car!

Wawasan Dengkil registers RM134.7 million revenue for nine-months FY25
PETALING JAYA: Earthworks and civil engineering construction services provider Wawasan Dengkil Holdings Bhd recorded revenue of RM134.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 (9M25), with 89.6% contributed by its construction services segment and the balance by its trading of construction materials and hiring of machinery and commercial vehicles segments. Group profit after tax (PAT) stood at RM8.2 million, translating into a healthy margin of 6.1%. After excluding the one-off IPO listing expenses of RM1.3 million for 9M'25, Wawasan Dengkil would have recorded an adjusted PAT of RM9.5 million and an adjusted PAT margin of 7.1% for the financial period under review. Wawasan Dengkil also announced its third quarter (Q3'25) financial results. On a quarter-on-quarter basis, the group recorded revenue of RM40.6 million in Q3'25, compared to RM48 million in the previous quarter (Q2'25). This was mainly due to lower contributions from the construction segment as several projects were completed or near completion. The trading segment also saw lower contribution in the quarter following the completion of a major customer's project. Meanwhile, the group registered PAT of RM2.1 million in Q3'25, which, after excluding the one-off IPO listing expenses, would have been RM2.9 million and is comparable to Q2'25's PAT of RM3.4 million. There are no comparative figures for the preceding corresponding quarter and period ended as the company was listed was listed on the ACE Market of Bursa Securities on March 25. Wawasan Dengkil executive director Lim Soon Yik said, 'We are pleased to report a set of healthy performance following our recent listing on Bursa Securities. Our project pipeline remains strong and will keep us engaged over the next two to three financial years. Currently, we are managing 13 ongoing construction projects, with an unbilled order book of RM369.6 million as at March 31 2025. 'While we are mindful of tariff developments, the group does not foresee any impact as we operate domestically without reliance on imports or exports. The outlook remains positive, with the construction industry to benefit from government-led initiatives and increased spending in infrastructure development. With the RM27 million in fresh capital raised through the IPO, we are aiming to enhance our internal capabilities to tender for more and larger-scale projects. 'As of March 31, 2025, our tender book stands at RM1.6 billion, primarily within civil engineering services for property development, highways, urban rail construction, as well as solar farm infrastructure works.' Additionally, the group is well-positioned to capitalise on the national energy transition, which aims for a 40% renewable energy capacity target by 2035. Utility-scale programmes such as LSS5, LSS5+, and the upcoming LSS6 present significant opportunities for the group. As earthworks are typically required during the initial phases of building and infrastructure projects, Wawasan Dengkil is strategically placed to benefit from these growth prospects.
