CONCERN over a shortage of Rapid Penang buses has prompted a local non-governmental organisation to call out the state government for using the public fleet for special programmes, saying the practice is disrupting daily commuters.
Penang Public Transport Passengers Association (Petua) said Rapid Penang was already operating with a limited number of buses and any diversion for non‑routine purposes adversely affected thousands who rely on the service.
