Ahmad Maslan criticises poor maintenance of Telupid-Sandakan road
SANDAKAN: Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan has voiced strong dissatisfaction over the poor maintenance of the Telupid-Sandakan road, a segment of the Pan Borneo Highway project. He emphasised that contractors are contractually obligated to ensure road usability during construction. 'Under the agreement, they must maintain roads in construction zones properly. The current state is unacceptable and burdens the public,' Ahmad told reporters after inspecting the Naval Region 2 Headquarters jetty project. He shared that his team documented severe road damage in four videos, forwarded to the Works Ministry for review. Three critical stretches have drawn public complaints: Jalan Sandakan Batu 32-Moynod (WP28), Jalan Moynod-Sapi Nangoh (WP29), and Jalan Sapi Nangoh-Sungai Baoto (WP30). Ahmad has directed the Public Works Department to intensify monitoring and issue warnings to non-compliant contractors. The ministry reserves the right to appoint third-party maintenance if contractors fail repairs, deducting costs from their contracts. 'For instance, if repairs cost RM5 million, the contractor's payment will be reduced accordingly,' he explained. Contract terms include mandatory upkeep, safety signage, and infrastructure protection. - Bernama

According to a post on JPJ Sarawak's official Facebook page, the vehicle was seized during 'Ops Luxury', an operation focusing on luxury vehicles that fail to comply with road regulations. 'Such offences not only reflect a negligent attitude towards legal obligations but also pose potential safety risks to other road users,' it stated. JPJ Sarawak emphasised that Ops Luxury demonstrates its commitment to the principle that no one is above the law, regardless of whether they drive a regular or luxury vehicle. This approach reinforces that complying with regulations is a shared responsibility for public safety. JPJ Sarawak advises all vehicle owners to ensure that their vehicles are legally compliant, not excessively modified, and covered by valid insurance and road tax. 'The law does not recognise status, and safety is a right for everyone on the road. No amount of luxury can ever replace the value of a human life,' it added. JPJ Sarawak said Ops Luxury will continue to be carried out from time to time to identify and take action against owners and drivers of luxury vehicles who fail to comply with traffic rules.
