KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 8): A change in the project delivery partner (PDP) model for the Pan Borneo Highway in Sarawak will not affect the scope, safety and continuity of the project, said Works Minister Baru Bian.

He said by taking a similar approach as the Pan Borneo Highway in Sabah, the Works Ministry and the Sarawak Public Works Department will be adopting the existing technical expertise in implementing the project the conventional way.
