00:00Federal Territories Minister Hannah Yeo has defended the Bangun KL initiative,
00:05saying it is part of broader efforts to work with private sector partners
00:09to revitalize Kuala Lumpur and address diverse public needs.
00:14Yeo said these programs reflect the government's openness to collaborating with private sector initiatives,
00:20Brita Harian reported.
00:22The campaign offers discounted coffee at around 250 Zeus coffee outlets
00:27between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m. to encourage commuters to enter the city earlier and ease congestion.
00:33Her remarks come amid questions over the initiative's effectiveness in addressing peak-hour traffic.
00:40Yeo said introducing a variety of programs allows people to choose what suits their routines
00:45and that it is better to try different approaches than do nothing.
00:49She added that the government cannot address all urban challenges alone,
00:54making private sector collaboration essential.
