KOTA KINABALU: The state government has yet to get any formal word or proposal from a Brunei company that announced plans for implementing the first high-speed rail network project in Borneo that includes Sabah.

He said the only Trans Borneo rail project currently being looked at was by the federal Transport Ministry which plans to conduct a feasibility study this year on the possibility to link the Borneo region. "However, Shahelmey said the Sabah government had received several proposals from various interested parties, including from China and India, to put in place a railway network in the state.Shahelmey said Sabah Railway Department was more focused on carrying out a feasibility study to re-establish the railway line to Sepanggar Port in Kota Kinabalu.

"That is our priority though we are also generally looking at the idea of linking the state's west coast to the east coast with a railway link," he added.
