The Transport Minister said this is an expansion of an initiative announced last year, which allows these logistics companies to share prime movers and trailer beds to carry container cargo.“This initiative is implemented after continuous reviews to ensure existing regulations are in line with the industry’s development and to contribute to its efficiency,” he told reporters on Thursday .
In September last year, Dr Wee said that the move will allow greater flexibility by allowing companies within the same group to interchange their prime movers, trailers and semi-trailers in response to changing market demands. Dr Wee added that aside from the existing conditions set when the initiative was introduced last year, this initiative only involves first-tier subsidiary companies.Under the initiative, the prime mover and trailer permitted laden weight for the interchanging is subject to a semi-trailer BDM or gross combined weight of a prime mover, whichever is lower between the two.
“The Transport Ministry remains committed to improving the logistics industry through greater efficiency and competitiveness,” said Dr Wee.
