Popek Popek Parlimen: eScooters, Too Fast Not So Furious

Today in Dewan Rakyat, MPs discussed the issue of road safety issue involving personal micromobility vehicles (PMV) such as electric scooters and mopeds, with Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Hasbi Habibollah being against the idea of licenses for PMV riders as there had been backlash previously with the suggestion to create licences for cyclists. Other topics debated include mental health concerns amongst children living in PPRs, and the Education Ministry intending to implement a one-session school system while maintaining a limit of 35 students per class.
