Six 12MP projects faced implementation issues, says A-G

The Auditor-General's Report 2/2026 revealed that six development projects under the 12th Malaysia Plan faced implementation issues, including contract terminations, prolonged extensions of time (EoT), and delays. The projects included the Galeria Perdana upgrade in Langkawi, two armed forces' family housing projects, a PPR housing project, and two firefighters' quarters projects in Sabah.

The RM20.4 million Galeria Perdana upgrade project in Langkawi was terminated on Sept 23, 2024, after four EoTs totaling 192 days due to the contractor's poor financial management and failure to carry out the work. The project's completion cost increased by RM36 million to RM56.4 million, and liquidated and ascertained damages of RM440,000 were imposed for a 136-day delay.
