KUCHING: The selection of rescue contractors to complete 'sick' projects that are late or fail to be completed on schedule, is done through a strict vetting process by the Works Ministry. The Works Minister stressed that among aspects included in the vetting process are financial strength, experience, and technical capabilities as well as the assets of the company. Fadillah explained that currently the hiring of rescue contractors is implemented through an open application. "We hire them by open application and from there we do the vetting process. "There are many who apply to be the rescue contractors, but only a few get it (due to strict vetting),” he said.
