“It is important that the public and private sectors work hand in hand in support of the general public,” Transport Minister Anthony Loke said in his opening speech at a media event at Grab Malaysia’s headquarters here.

“We truly believe that a better everyday begins with a safer everyday. We are encouraged that you share our vision,” he said.
