PETALING JAYA: Both companies selected for a new demand-responsive transit (DRT) system in the Klang Valley were approved by the land public transport agency (Apad) and federal regulators, said Selangor investment, trade and mobility committee chairman Ng Sze Han.

The state government has found itself on the back foot following allegations of preferential treatment in the tender process after it was revealed that youth and sports minister Hannah Yeoh’s husband, Ramachandran Muniandy, is the CEO of Asia Mobility Technologies Sdn Bhd, one of the companies selected.

“Asia Mobility Technologies and Badan Bas Coach Sdn Bhd had presented satisfactorily to a state transport committee, which led to the state deciding to appoint them based on their experience in rolling out their proof of concept earlier, which was also approved by Apad previously,” Ng said in a statement today.



“The state wants to meet the standards set by the authorities to ensure the safety of passengers was guaranteed,” he said, adding that a letter of intent was issued on June 15, 2023, followed by a letter of appointment to the two companies on Sept 20.

Yesterday, X user @RakyatAduan asked the Selangor government how a company closely linked to the minister could be given the project, if there was an open tender, and whether Asia Mobility Technologies was chosen on merit.
