Transport Minister Anthony Loke (above) said he will respond to KAJ Development Sdn Bhd (KAJD)'s RM139 billion lawsuit against the cancellation of the RM43 billion Malacca Gateway integrated deep-sea port project, after receiving legal notice.
“We will respond once we receive the suit. We haven't received anything in writing,” he told reporters during the signing ceremony of Prasarana and Scomi engineering for the monorail project in Sungai Choh, Rawang.
He appeared unhappy about KAJD accusing the transport ministry of not responding to their appeal.
“How can you give a timeline to minister to reply to you? That's the first issue.”
Pressed on the reasons for the cancellation of the project, Loke reiterated that once the ministry has received the legal notice of the lawsuit, he will answer.
“We will respond once we receive the suit. Of course, there are reasons why we cancelled it. We don't simply go around cancelling. We will address that once we receive the suit.”
