The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) wants to introduce a new motorcycle licence category that would limit 16 to 20-year-old youths to only ride low-powered motorcycles by 2025.
Free Malaysia Today reports that PDRM had submitted proposals to the Transport Ministry on enforcing a new “B3” motorcycle licence category that would only allow future youths to ride electric bikes or low-powered, small-capacity engine motorcycles that are 70cc and below.
In response to the idea, the Road Transport Department (JPJ) said that it would work with the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) and the Public Works Department (JKR) to study the proposed law.
KUALA LUMPUR: It’s a fallacy to think a wealthy person is incapable of committing wrong for financial gains, said Justice Mohamed Zaini Mazlan in delivering his judgment on Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor, better known as Ku Nan.
The High Court judge found the former minister guilty of receiving RM2mil for himself from a property developer and sentenced him to 12 months in jail along with a RM2mil fine.
The subject of Tengku Adnan’s wealth was highlighted in Justice Zaini’s 87-page judgment.
“The accused maintained he is a man of means. I accept the accused’s contention that he did not intend to brag when declaring his worth and that he merely wanted to assert that RM2mil was not an amount that would entice him.
