Quite conservative, considering it's all underground.

impact on Scomi is not that great but its a no.2 issue compared with funding
Disagree with awarding contract to China as well as we already have too much project with China, feel like the 'lifeline' of maintenance of train is now within China's control, imagine if there is one day we suddenly become enemy with China, where Beijing decided to stop supporting the maintenance of our train fleet then we are doomed.

If we can diversify on our public transport (lrt, mrt, monorail, ktm and now possibly tram), we should do the same on train manufacturer as well (which I believe Bombardier or Hitachi produce better monorails than China.

We'd be in far bigger trouble if we ever decided to be enemies with China. Not gonna happen.
