If you guys look carefully at the video, I think none of electrical cabling above track has been lay out yet. Those thing including testing will take time. I remember northern sector they finished double tracking first but electrification was still not done. But diesel trains can already use both tracks. This will happen to southern route also while electrification being done. So Loke is not wrong. He is being conservative.

Gemas is the interchange station to East Coast rail route. ECRL will be the next game changer, bypassing Gemas.

Yes. This route splitting at Gemas is basically colonial era.
