PUTRAJAYA, Nov 11 — In his parting words to the Transport Ministry, Anthony Loke today urged the Road Transport Department (JPJ) to continue its “war” against overloading in commercial vehicles even after he leaves as transport minister.
Loke, who effectively resigned as transport minister yesterday, noted that there would be people cheering and feeling happy that the minister who does not compromise against overloading or who was attempting to interfere with their livelihood (periuk nasi) has left.
“’The minister has berambus (gone off), we can overload again like in the past, no problem’,” he said in his 48-minute speech at the Transport Ministry here, as he described how overloaders would feel.
