Roads built on government land are not allowed to be sold or transferred to the private sector, said deputy minister of natural resources and environmental sustainability Syed Ibrahim Syed Noh. As these are strategic national assets, private sector involvement is limited to road management or maintenance through concession agreements, without affecting government ownership or the status of the road as a public road.
The Ledang MP added that any closure, disposal or change in the status of a public road is subject to gazettement and approval by the relevant authorities under the Town and Country Planning Act 1976 (Act 172), the Roads, Drains and Buildings Act 1974 (Act 133) and the National Land Code 1965 (Act 828).
“This process involves scrutiny by the public works department (JKR) and local authorities, approval by state authorities, and the requirement to provide an equivalent or better alternative route if public access is affected,” he told the Dewan Rakyat today, reported by Bernama.
The government adopts a multi-layered assessment process, including verification of land status, technical evaluations by JKR and local councils on safety, capacity and accessibility, and conditions set by state authorities requiring an equivalent or improved alternative route before any changes are implemented, the NRES deputy minister said.

even petronas assets can be stolen, sorry i mean “taken over” by sabah sarawak so anything is possible
Yes, just like Sabah and Sarawak natural resources can be stolen, sorry I mean “constitutionally repurposed” by Federal gomen so anything is possible
All about greedy MP, illegal trespassing also can get a free lands and compensation.
natural resources are being redistributed for the greater good of the nation.
but public roads being privateized are to benefit a certain crony.
see the difference?
Yes, the difference is national resources are being stolen from East Malaysia for the greater good of Klang Valley. I fail to see how KV = the nation. Clearly in your miniscule brain it is less of a problem than the equally wrong issue of roads being transferred to the private sector. See the difference – they are both wrong but in your head Sabah and Sarawak don’t matter so you can dismiss them with that moronic comment ” even petronas assets can be stolen, sorry i mean “taken over” by sabah sarawak so anything is possible”.
obviously the capital city is the beating heart of the country, and its development is prioritize over the outskirts provinces. this guiding principal applies to every country in the world.
how about roads built on private genting land, can those be sold or transfered?
Nice but let’s see if cronies are more powerful in under table syok together with politicians for decades.
