The New Cabinet: Anthony Loke Appointed as Ministry of Transport
In conjunction with the newly announced Unity Government Cabinet, DAP Secretary General, Anthony Loke has been appointed as the Malaysian Transport Minister or should we say re-elected as previously, Loke served as the transport minister for the Pakatan Harapan administration under Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad from 2018 to 2020.
The Ministry of Transport will be in charge of not only driving licenses', public transportation and traffic laws, but also inter-ministerial relationship and collaboration with other ministries, such as MITI and MOF.
Returning to helm the Transport Ministry again, Anthony Loke Siew Fook told Bernama he aims to tackle several important issues requiring immediate attention, including improving the transport system services, especially the Light Rail Transit (LRT) service in the Klang Valley.
