The government is emphasising on improving railway networks and services as it will help increase public usage and the transportation of freight, says Deputy Transport Minister Kamaruddin Jaffar.
"Although a strong public transport system is the catalyst for growth, the key always lies in the business community," Kamaruddin said in his keynote address at the 2020 Malaysia Economic and Strategic Outlook Forum in Kuala Lumpur today. Kamaruddin pointed out that the first-mile, last-mile connectivity is always a challenge in transportation, noting that one of the strategies to tackle it is by leveraging new emerging technologies in the Fourth Industrial Revolution such as Internet of Things, machine learning, big data analytics and cloud computing.
He added the trial period of six months was needed to evaluate the feasibility and cultural fit of motorcycle-hailing in the local context.
