Mohd Nur Ismal Mohamed Kamal, Chief Executive Officer of the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD), talks about SPAD, its aims, its workforce, and when it will begin, given Parliament needs to amend several existing laws relating to public road and rail transport before it can begin operations.
He also discusses MMC-Gamuda's proposal for the 36b rgt MRT project, and how that can be reconciled by SPAD's working on a holistic oublic transport Masterplan.
He also addresses concerns over corruption and leakages, the need for open tenders, principles of good economic governance, World Bank protocols governing the award of tenders -- and whether SPAD and Malaysia adheres to these principles.
He also talks about "realising the ambitions" as outlined in the National Key Result Areas (NKRAs) for public transportation and the key deliverables.
He also discusses a potential Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, the awarding of licences to bus and taxi operators, feedback from the public and the KPIs in resolving them.
