Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Acting Minister for Transport (a) whether the Ministry will coordinate with the Malaysian authorities to construct a designated, covered pedestrian and cycling pathway on the Causeway to provide a safer, greener and more efficient alternative to motorised transport on one of the world's busiest land crossings; and (b) what discussions have already taken place on this matter, if any.
