- A feasibilty study is underway for a Johor Bahru to Singapore Rapid Transit Line
MAINLINE
- Projects to upgrade, double track and electrify the West Coast mainline are ongoing
- A new four phase East Coast mainline has been proposed

A TRULY REGIONAL EVENT
In addition to the delegations from up to 10 Asian railway operators, who will attend the 10th Annual Congress of the Asian Railway Operators Association (see conference and AROA pages for full details), Malaysia is also strategically placed to attract trade visitors and conference delegates from across the region.
THE VENUE
The event will be held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. The venue is situated in the heart of the city and offers first-class conference facilities and exhibition halls all under one roof.
