IPOH (Bernama): The e-hailing drivers in Perak have urged the government to standardise the price of the Public Service Vehicle (PSV) licence and the insurance payment scheme due to different rates set by regions and states. “We support the government's efforts to fix the price of PSV licence that must be paid by the e-hailing drivers but the government should review the e-hailing system including the pricing of PSV licence and insurance that is seen to be varied throughout the country. He said this at a press conference after a peaceful assembly attended by about 50 e-hailing drivers at the Perak Stadium compound here Friday (April 19). In November last year, Transport Minister Anthony Loke said all e-hailing drivers must register for PSV licence similar to other taxi drivers from January this year. Loke said drivers were given until July 12 this year to complete their PSV licence and course.
