KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 23 ― Taxi drivers are threatening to become Pakatan Rakyat ambassadors if their demands are not met by the government.
Around 50 taxi drivers attended the launch of their pressure group, Tuntutan Pemandu Teksi Malaysia (Teksi), this morning, demanding 11 points which include unconditional granting of individual taxi permits and revising the free GO-KL bus service.
“We carry around 1 million passengers a day. Imagine if we become PR ambassadors instead of tourism ambassadors,” said Teksi pro-tem chairman Mohammad Ridzwan Mohamad Daud.
“A lot can change in the 2 weeks leading up to the General Election.”
The taxi drivers also plan to hold peaceful protests every Saturday all over Malaysia until their demands are met.
