KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 — State Investment, Trade, and Mobility Committee chairman Ng Sze Han today said the Demand Responsive Transit (DRT) pilot project awarded to a company...
Selangor Investment, Trade, and Mobility Committee chairman Ng Sze Han said that the involvement of the companies participating in the proof of concept was decided through a Request-for-Proposal process. He added that there are two companies involved in the bus-on-demand proof of concept process in Selangor, namely Asia Mobiliti Sdn Bhd and Badan Bus Coach Sdn Bhd.
Ng said the decision to involve only these two companies, namely Asia Mobiliti and Badan Bus, was taken because the Selangor state government took steps to start the process. Among APAD’s conditions are having their own fleet of minibuses or vans, vehicle age limit not exceeding 10 years, drivers with a valid class D and free from the blacklist of the Road Transport Department and the police.
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has conducted preliminary investigations and found no signs of power abuse or conflict of interest involving Yeoh. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has also weighed in and said investigations can be conducted if the authorities see a need to do so, as the public deserves a proper explanation of the tender process.
