SEREMBAN: The report on the network systems disruption at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), which disrupted flights as well as passenger movements, is expected to be received next month.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke said the report from the KLIA Total Airport Management System (TAMS) Failure Issues Committee would also be tabled in Cabinet early next month.

He said this after opening the 20th Negri Sembilan DAP convention, here, today.

Also present was DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng and Negri Sembilan PH chairman Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun.

On Aug 21, a network system malfunction at KLIA caused the cancellation and delay of flights for several days.

Police have thus far not found any strong indication to link the network systems disruptions at KLIA to sabotage.

Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Abdul Hamid Bador had said that investigations were ongoing and the views of experts were being considered.

“There is no drastic indicator for us to ascertain whether there was sabotage or not,” he said.

To date, 12 individuals have been called up to facilitate investigations into the systems disruptions that lasted for four days from Aug 21.

Four Malaysia Airport Holdings Bhd (MAHB) information technology division officers had lodged police reports denying involvement in the incidents.

Meanwhile, Loke said the government would continue with the Klang Valley Twin Track (KVDT) and Gemas-Johor Baru Twin Track project, even in the face of financial challenges.

He said a new financing method for the two projects would determined at a later date.
