KOTA BARU: More than 800 national service (NS) trainees were told to return home while thousands faced delays when some of the buses hired to transport them to the designated camps did not have permits to ferry the trainees.
A total 832 from the 1,432 trainees, who had gathered at the Sultan Muhammad IV Stadium here as early as 7.30am to board the buses at 9.30am, were asked to return home after 19 of the 36 buses hired to transport them failed to obtain temporary permits from the Road Transport Department (JPJ).
