In the hot seat


Former cabinet minister and SPAD chairman Tan Sri Syed Hamid Albar.

Being the chairman of the central authority for land public transport means that he is the target of criticisms, but Tan Sri Syed Hamid Albar notes that SPAD has only improved, thanks to the censure hurled against it.

PERHAPS no one has been more on edge this festive holiday with the balik kampung rush than Tan Sri Syed Hamid Albar. After all, the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD), of which he is the chairman, is always the most vilified party every time there is an express bus accident.
