KUALA LUMPUR: The government will not be able to fully fund the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore high speed rail (HSR) project, not with RM1.5 trillion of debts hanging around its neck, said some transport specialists.
They raised doubts over the private sector's ability to fund the HSR and viability of the project overall given that it may eventually cost more than RM120 billion.
Rosli noted that low passenger volume between both cities can also pose a problem for the HSR.
As at 2023, Rosli pointed out that the total air traffic between KL and Singapore stood at only about four million passengers.
"Even if we were to assume all four millions were to switch to HSR, at similar airfares, the revenue won't be enough to pay even for the yearly operation cost, let alone the capital costs.

China has many HSR that is under utilised ....because the companies employ so many people they could not stop building.

Cambodia is planning for a 380km 160km/h HSR from its capital to the Thai border. The proposed HSR line will only cost a mere US$4bln. I guess the lower cost should due to a single track line just like the HSR in Laos.
For the private sector to fully foot the construction cost, the Malaysia HSR can also use the same cost-lowering approach (i.e. single track) if passenger load between JB and KL is expected to be low. But the HSR train speed should be slightly higher, at between 220 and 250km/h ( US$6b to 8b ?), to make the line more attractive. The 2nd track can be build in future when demand increases.
