SINGAPORE: Coach operator Aeroline, which runs bus services between Singapore and Malaysia, has been given the green light to resume operations on Nov 28, a spokesperson for Malaysia’s Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) told The Straits Times on Nov 27.
The bus company, which had been serving a month-long suspension until Dec 5 for letting passengers get on and off at unregulated spots, had said in a Nov 25 Facebook announcement that it would be back in business ahead of schedule.
“Your trust carried us when our buses could not,” Aeroline said in its post. It had previously sought public support after it was directed by APAD to temporarily cease its services from Nov 6.
APAD had said on Nov 2 that Aeroline’s suspension came after the company was found to have picked up and dropped off passengers at locations that were not approved terminals on at least three occasions in February, May and October.
Aeroline, which is managed and owned by operator Zulco, was warned to change its services to an approved terminal.
Checks on its website showed that Aeroline was selling tickets for services departing Singapore’s HarbourFront Centre for Kuala Lumpur on Nov 28, with Corus Hotel in the Malaysian capital as the destination. - The Straits Times/ANN
