The Transport Minister described Osman’s passing as a big loss for the rakyat and the country, especially the southern state of Johor.

“His contributions and sacrifices for the people and the development of Johor will be remembered eternally.

“May his soul be blessed,” Dr Wee said in a Facebook post on Wednesday (Dec 22).
