00:00On this day, I would like to announce that JPJ Malaysia has carried out a special operation
00:12on the Sampo vehicles starting from 2 to 6 September around Lemah Kelang.
00:19This operation has been carried out for enforcement on the inspection of vehicles
00:26that violate the Motor Vehicle License, i.e. self-driving vehicles
00:31to be used as public transport vehicles under Section 23.2 of the 1987 Road Traffic Act.
00:39This special operation on the Sampo vehicles was carried out in accordance with a request
00:44received by the JPJ where the mode of operation on the Sampo vehicles
00:49is to guide self-driving vehicles to pick up non-citizens
00:54to tourist destinations around Lemah Kelang.
00:57Through the operation on the Sampo vehicles on 2 to 6 September,
01:02the JPJ has obtained and statistics show that
01:06as many as 35 vehicles have been inspected and 21 vehicles have been taken into action
01:13and 21 vehicles have also been seated.
01:16As many as 45 warrant notices have been issued,
01:20the number of warrant notices for drivers is 23 and the number of warrant notices for owners is 22.
01:27For information, the violations carried out under Section 23.2 of the 1987 Road Traffic Act
01:34where if a license has been given to a motor vehicle to be used for a specific purpose
01:43and the motor vehicle at any time during the license period is in force
01:48used for another purpose,
01:51the person who uses the motor vehicle or causes or authorizes its use
01:57is committing a crime.
01:59Under this section, when a crime is committed,
02:03it can be fined no less than RM1,000 and no more than RM10,000
02:08or imprisoned for no more than 2 years or both.
02:12The JPJ is serious and will not compromise
02:16and will continue to exercise authority over any owners or drivers of vehicles
02:21who are found to be using LKM motor vehicles
02:24for the purpose of public transport based on the 1987 Road Traffic Act.
02:29The JPJ will also always take firm action against voters or drivers
02:34who continue to violate the laws and regulations.
02:39The JPJ is always committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of road users
02:45is always maintained and continues to be at the highest level.
02:48So I would like to inform you that this is one of the new operations control ops
02:55carried out by the JPJ authorities
03:00where this time, in addition to the ops that we place on the field
03:07that we always carry out on the main country's airfields,
03:12this time we carry out a rather new operation
03:16where we inspect and carry out operations around Lembah Kelang
03:23in the main hotels in Malaysia
03:25where we found a group of visitors at the hotel
03:31who used vehicles that did not have a valid permit.
03:36So what we do is we have our ops, we have SOP that we carry out
03:44and we detained the drivers who took passengers
03:48in the main hotels in Malaysia without a permit.
03:52The vehicle used was a vehicle that did not have a valid permit
03:57and we searched the vehicles.
03:59So our operations this time are not limited to airports
04:03but this time we will expand our targets in the main hotels
04:10and other places where we feel there are a lot of issues with the SAPU.
04:22This week we will carry out operations in Lembah Kelang
04:24and then we will expand to the rest of the country after this
04:28based on the report that will be issued by the authorities this week
04:33I will direct all countries to take the same action
04:37to carry out this operation.
04:39We just won't tell you when we want to do it.
04:43We will see first what the RO that we will carry out later
04:49by our authorities and we will take action.
04:53I also want to give a warning to the drivers who do not have a valid permit
05:00because they do not have a valid permit, they do not have insurance.
05:03When they carry passengers, the passengers are not covered by insurance
05:07which endangers the passengers.
05:09And they use a charge that is a bit unfair to the passengers.
05:14And most of the passengers who were detained in the hotel premises
05:20are foreigners.
05:23Foreign tourists who do not know about the scenario of vehicles
05:29that have a valid permit such as taxis and helicopters.
05:33So this will slightly affect the image of the country
05:40if the drivers without a permit still carry out their work
05:47in hotels by using a very high charge compared to the actual charge
05:52issued by the authorities.
05:54How much is the charge?
05:56It depends on the journey.
05:59There is one from KL to Singapore.
06:03It charges SGD 300.
06:06KL to Singapore?
06:07Yes, KL to Singapore.
06:08SGD 300.
06:09According to the Malaysian rate, it is about SGD 300.
06:13It is charged according to Singapore's currency.
06:16From SGD 300, it charges SGD 300.
06:20So that is one of the things that we see that slightly affects the image of the country.
06:25And we will carry out these operations directly.
06:28There are a lot of MPV vehicles.
06:30Yes, there are a lot of MPV vehicles.
06:31MPV vehicles.
06:32Now, because they use LKM that is not valid.
06:39They use their own LKM.
06:41But they are not using LKM.
06:43Now, we will check the vehicles first.
06:45All of the vehicles that we are holding,
06:47as many as 21, we will check.
06:49And the driver, we will take action in terms of the compound and the vehicle.
06:55Is this a complaint from the public?
06:58Yes, it is a complaint from the public.
07:01How long has this been going on?
07:08Actually, this has been going on for a long time.
07:11But we at JPJ do not want to go into the premises before this.
07:16We want to focus more on public places such as airports, bus terminals and JT.
07:26But maybe after this, after we accept this complaint,
07:29we will re-organize our work.
07:32We will re-organize our work.
07:34In terms of getting the cooperation,
07:37we will discuss it with the Tourism Union.
07:40How we want to do it.
07:42But we do not want to go in directly.
07:45Because it will also interfere with the tourism industry.
07:51It will also spoil the image of tourism.
07:55So for now, we are more focused.
07:58If we have a complaint, we will take action.
