Only half of Rapid Bus' fleet active, says Transport Ministry


KUALA LUMPUR: Only 900 of the 1,757 buses under Rapid Bus, a subsidiary of Prasarana Group, are actively operating, says the Transport Ministry.

Minister Anthony Loke said this was because 45% of the total number of buses were more than 10-years-old, and needed repair and maintenance works done on them.
