In this five-part series KiniBiz takes a close look at KTM. We begin with the viability of KTM and what can be done to change it fortunes. Will the much awaited double tracking project be the impetus to a turnaround? We go on to discuss the the mammoth task now facing KTM as it tries to increase traffic to justify the massive investment in rail. In our third part, KiniBiz meet with KTM’s chairman, Nawawi Ahmad, to get his views on the future of the struggling rail operator. Part four focusses on Nawawi’s ideas to change the rail operators future. We end our series with Tiger’s opinion on what needs to be done going forward to get KTM back on track.
