The ECRL cost was inflated by Najib previously because he wanted to sift off the funding.  Mahathir is able to cut Najib and his cronies off the funding by cutting the ECRL distance and reducing the land acquisition cost.  The "new" ECRL will not go through Gombak now and the land acquisition cost is greatly reduced.
