The Malaysian Works Ministry has requested an allocation of between RM5 billion and RM6 billion under the upcoming Budget 2027 to support the nationwide maintenance of federal roads. This substantial funding is intended to ensure that road quality remains high and that safety standards for all motorists are strictly upheld.
According to reports from Bernama, the ministry's proposal highlights the critical need for consistent investment to manage the country's extensive federal road network. The requested RM5 billion to RM6 billion is earmarked for comprehensive upkeep and structural preservation, aiming to address the wear and tear caused by high traffic volumes.
