00:03Transport Minister Anthony Look has slammed a group of Matt Rempit for turning the departure
00:08area of the new terminal at Sultan Ismail Petra Airport into a racetrack. In a Facebook post on
00:16Sunday, he described their actions as not only disappointing but also deeply shameful,
00:22noting that such behaviour tarnishes the image of the state.
00:26Look said he has directed the Road Transport Department, or JPJ, to carry out large-scale
00:33enforcement operations in the area. He warned that anyone caught racing in front of the airport
00:39will have their motorcycles seized immediately. Look added that the federal government has spent
00:45nearly 450 million ringgit upgrading the airport to improve connectivity and boost tourism in
00:52Kalantan. However, the illegal racing activities, which began during Ramadan and escalated on
00:59Friday, recently went viral on social media.
