Sacked Melaka Gateway developer files suit to challenge state govt’s termination of land reclamation concession notice

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 14 — Former Melaka Gateway sole developer KAJ Development Sdn Bhd has today filed a judicial review to challenge the termination of the land reclamation concession notice issued by the Melaka state government in October.

In the suit, the company therefore said the state government was in breach of the Temporary Measures for Reducing the Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 2020 which barred the termination of any construction project suspended due to the country’s pandemic prevention measures until December 31, 2020. “All land reclamation activities have been suspended since the movement control order was implemented on March 18, 2020 as both equipment used and foreign experts could not return to Malaysia and are still unable to do so.

The company made a public appeal last month to be allowed to continue the RM43 billion Melaka Gateway project after the state government said on November 16 that KAJ Development’s contract was terminated after it failed to complete the work by the given date.
