Malaysia Rail Industry Corporation or better known as MARIC, is an industry- led platform that promotes coordination and integration among Malaysian rail players. Established on 17 April 2017 to support and represent the voice of local rail industry players, MARIC acts as a focal point for local players in the strategic development of human capital, technology and supply chain. MARIC benefits from relevant government investments and supports government policies on national rail industry development. A total of 36 local rail companies are gathered under MARIC, with focus on seven clusters of capabilities in system works, namely: signalling, track works, rolling stocks, telecommunication, power supply, automated fare collection and consultancy. The government’s localisation policy has significantly helped develop the local rail industry. The local players involvement in three major projects under The Greater Kuala Lumpur Plan 2010 has achieved international standards & recognition. These projects were awarded based on the capabilities of MARIC members together with the respective local and international rail partners.
