00:00The bus service is very good.
00:05In this year's bus service,
00:12JPJ has serviced 6,605 buses
00:18in 54 depots and 28 main terminals
00:23throughout the country since 20 January.
00:26until 9 February this year for China's new year's Ops TBC.
00:33Based on the strategy of the authorities,
00:37JPJ has issued 635 notice of complaint.
00:42Based on the P22 notice issued,
00:46we have identified the mistakes made by the bus service
00:50which is 410.
00:53This is only for buses.
00:55To ensure that the bus drivers are competent and competent,
00:59JPJ and AADK have conducted a urine test
01:05on 420 bus drivers.
01:09Out of those 420,
01:126 of the bus drivers have failed in the urine test.
01:17I would like to remind all bus drivers,
01:21bus operators,
01:24to follow all the rules
01:27set by the road and public transport authorities.
01:32Bus operators must ensure
01:36that all drivers are free from all mistakes,
01:40including the urine test,
01:43before allowing these drivers
01:45to drive the bus for the Chinese New Year holiday.
01:53I would like to ask all bus operators
01:56to ensure that this is fully compliant.
01:59We have made a policy
02:02to allow passengers in the buses we choose
02:08to drive throughout the country.
02:10So when we find that these drivers have made a mistake,
02:15we will take further action.
02:18Sir, what are the technical errors?
02:22Mostly due to the tyre.
02:24The tyre?
02:26Yes, the tyre.
02:28If we get clearance from JPJ,
02:33we will complete the bus inspection slip
02:37which shows that the bus is free to go.
02:43If we don't get the slip,
02:46the bus won't be able to move.
02:49Sir, what are the technical errors?
02:52If there are technical errors like the tyre,
02:56the bus operator will give an excuse
02:59that he didn't have time to check.
03:02It should be ensured that
03:04not only the bus operator,
03:07but also the bus operator himself
03:10is responsible for ensuring that
03:13all the equipment and tyres are in good condition
03:16before starting the journey.
03:19So it's usually the same excuse,
03:22that he didn't have time to check.
03:25That's usually the excuse we get.
03:30Happy Chinese New Year.
03:34Happy Chinese New Year.
