City folk irked by parking touts

JOHOR BARU: A rejuvenation project in downtown Johor Baru, that started in 2016, is part of the state’s ongoing efforts to beautify the city centre but the presence of parking touts continue to mar its image and frustrate road users.

The touts could usually be seen hanging around along Jalan Trus, Jalan Dhoby and Jalan Segget here, waiting for handouts from motorists who park their vehicles there.
