Prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is tabling the 13th Malaysia Plan or Rancangan Malaysia Ketiga Belas (RMK13) today in parliament – the government’s plan and budget for the next five years, until 2030.
One of the items concerns land border crossings – infrastructure projects such as the Rantau Panjang-Sungai Kolok bridge (Malaysia-Thailand), the Sabah/Sarawak-Kalimantan road network (Malaysia-Indonesia), the Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link (Malaysia-Singapore) and the Perlis Inland Port (Malaysia-Thailand) will continue.
Also set to be upgraded are the Bukit Kayu Hitam and Rantau Panjang Immigration, Customs, Quarantine and Security (ICQS) complexes plus Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) facilities in Sabah and Sarawak.
It was reported in May that the RM141.57 million BKH ICQS project will build a 900-metre six-lane dual carriageway, a 300-metre service road to the Bukit Kayu Hitam general operations force’s tactical headquarters, the final control post building and a covered entrance gate. It will also demolish old buildings and facilities and build new structures for Bukit Kayu Hitam’s 5th Battalion Camp of the Border Regiment.
