Question

Accepted Answer

KCJ Engineering Did Not Receive Special Contractual Terms

KCJ Engineering Sdn Bhd did not receive any special terms or conditions in its RM62 million contract for the road project. The Public Works Department (JKR) Negeri Sembilan director and contract administrator for the project, Wan Hasnan Wan Musa, confirmed that the contractor was treated normally, with no preferential treatment applied to its contract.
No Special Contractual Provisions

Wan Hasnan Wan Musa, who serves as the contract administrator for the project, explicitly stated that KCJ Engineering’s contract did not include any special terms or conditions. His testimony indicated that the contractor was subject to the standard contractual framework applicable to government projects under JKR's supervision.
Normal Treatment Affirmed

When questioned by the defence, Wan Hasnan confirmed that the treatment afforded to KCJ Engineering was "normal" and not "special." This assertion directly addresses concerns about preferential treatment, clarifying that the contractor’s engagement followed standard procedures without any unusual concessions.
Contractual Basis for Payments

Payments made to KCJ Engineering, including an advance payment and interim payments, were based on the project's progress. Wan Hasnan explained that advance payments for contractors under JKR's purview are capped at 25 per cent or a maximum of RM10 million, provided the department has the necessary allocation. The government paid over RM24.3 million to KCJ between March 2022 and February 2023 based on the work completed.
