On August 23 local time, an Electric Train Service 3 (ETS3) bullet train developed by the CRRC Zhuzhou Locomotive Co., Ltd. departed from the Kuala Lumpur Station and headed for Kluang, Johor, starting its official operation in Malaysia.

当地时间8月23日，由中国中车集团旗下中车株机公司研制的ETS3动车组从吉隆坡车站启程，驶往柔佛居銮，正式在马来西亚启用。

The launch of this train signified a new milestone of China-Malaysia cooperation in the rail transit sector, as an important testament to the continuous deepening of friendship between the two countries. 

此次车组的投运标志着中马两国在轨道交通领域的合作迈上新台阶，也是中马友谊持续深化的重要见证。

At the launch ceremony held at the Kuala Lumpur Station, Malaysia's King Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook, as well as the chief secretary to the Malaysian government and representatives from various parties, together witnessed the official commissioning of the ETS3 bullet train. King Sultan Ibrahim entered the driver's cab and tried his hand at operating the train, injecting new momentum into the modernization of Malaysia's rail transit system.

在吉隆坡车站举行的启用仪式上，马来西亚最高元首易卜拉欣与马来西亚交通部部长陆兆福、政府首席秘书及多方代表共同见证了ETS3动车组正式投入使用。随后，易卜拉欣走进驾驶室，亲自掌控列车驰骋南马铁道，为推动马来西亚轨道交通现代化建设注入新的动力。

The ETS3 project is scheduled to officially commence commercial operations on August 30. To ensure efficient operation of the train, the CRRC Zhuzhou Locomotive Co., Ltd. has formulated a specialized support plan. Upon operation, travel between Kuala Lumpur and Johor will become more convenient, marking a milestone in promoting economic and social development along the route and enhancing regional connectivity.

ETS3南部电气化铁路服务预计将于今年8月30日正式投入商业运营，为保障列车高效运营，中车株机公司制定了专项保障计划。届时，吉隆坡与柔佛之间的出行将更加便捷，这对促进沿线经济社会发展、深化区域互联互通具有里程碑意义。

The ETS3 train operates at an average speed of 160 km per hour, boasting multiple advantages such as excellent acceleration performance, energy efficiency, environmental friendliness, and reliable operation. Equipped with a high-capacity backup battery, it can maintain emergency lighting and ventilation systems for up to two hours without an overhead line system, fully reflecting the "safe, smart, and green" design philosophy. 

ETS3动车组运行时速160公里，具备加速性能优越、节能环保、运行可靠等优势；配备备用大容量电池，在无接触网情况下仍可维持紧急照明与通风系统运行两小时，充分体现了“安全、智能、绿色”的设计理念。
