The government has agreed to a proposal by Amanat Lebuhraya Rakyat (ALR), a private and “not-for-profit” company to restructure four Klang Valley highway concessionaires, which will ensure that toll rates will not rise until their concessions expire. But is the price tag of RM5.5billion fair and who actually stands to benefit? P. Gunasegaram, independent writer and consultant gives us the answers. Image credit: Shutterstock.com
