Historical token shows Indian community's contribution to the rail sector


PETALING JAYA: A train key token with Tamil script was proof that the Indian community significantly contributed to the development and operation of the country's railway system, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The Transport Minister said he saw the token when he boarded a Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) train from Pasir Mas to Wakaf Bharu in Kelantan on Sunday (April 11), and was told that it was the key to keeping trains running smoothly.
