KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian P-Hailing Riders Association (Penghantar) wants the RM42mil government allocation for a career development programme to be used for entrepreneurship skills training.

Penghantar president Zulhelmi Mansor said such an initiative is important because the majority of those providing p-hailing service are B40 youths, who need to be equipped with knowledge and skills that will improve their prospects for the future.
