: Transport Minister Anthony Loke said the government will continue to promote the use of electric vehicles through various policies and proactive implementation by all parties, including the private sector.
“Therefore, we are striving to encourage the transition to EV usage within the transportation industry,” Loke told reporters after officiating the launch of Nestle Malaysia’s MILO EV trucks here today.Loke said that in the government sector, Prasarana Malaysia Bhd is moving towards the purchase of EV buses.
Loke said that the initiative, in collaboration with various parties including Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd, serves as an excellent example of how private sector leadership can accelerate Malaysia’s journey towards sustainability. “Usually, lorries have two licences, one for the prime mover and one for the tank. Typically, the same company holds both licences . In this case, we will allow two different companies to provide this service so that Nestle can quickly initiate their agenda to transport goods via EV trucks and reduce costs.
