Pahang police chief Datuk Sharifuddin Ab Ghani said they had identified the owner of the Kuala Lumpur-registered bus operator and would get his statement including on claims that the ill-fated bus was overloaded.

Kenapa bas ke Genting ini dibenarkan membawa penumpang berdiri. Bukankah jalan ke Genting tu berbukit dan banyak selekoh tajam.
ReplyDeletePeraturan bagi bas ke Genting/Cameron Highland tak patut disamakan dengan bas berhenti-henti di bandar2.
Ini yg peliknya. hanya kejadian seperti ini yg membuka mata pegawai2 kerajaan.
Nama pun bas express genting. Bas express boleh berdiri ke? Berapa jauh nak sampai kl kalau berdiri? SPAD kena ligik la sikit. Kalau nak tolong cinabeng genting pun..jangan la over sangat bagi statement.
ReplyDeleteAku lebih setuju kepada statement polis. Professional dan tepat.
