JKR = standardize a infra system and a standard of competency in Malaysia ; no political affiliate; structure the necessary system in place from a housing / engineering / management / etc etc / examine the cost effective deliverance and value for malaysia tax payers
Just look at major "Infrastructure" entity around the world.
they always have a good list what the country need to do etc like a "independent consultant" . like US Army Engineering Corp. / Infrastructure Aus / Infrastructure NZ / UK Infrastructures etc.
JKR is so out dated. all work work on road only but never get best top notch road like german engineering.
The Road in Malaya highways are better than those in Borneo; why.
isnt the roads procurement and standards supposedly the same as accordance to malaya or prior engineering standard to adhered to.
You say JKR...how about CIBD.
another one body..
so many agencies or body with certain entity should be merged; instead let them carry their own syiok sendiri agenda.
You don’t expect backwater places to be willing to folk out extra for higher specifications stuffs, even though it might be more cost effective in long run.
