PETALING JAYA: The legal suit against the Kelana Jaya LRT owner and operator filed by a victim of the 2021 LRT collision should be settled out of court instead of being prolonged, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong (pic).

The former transport minister during the May 24, 2021 incident urged the government to speedily compensate Florence Lee, 57, for her loss of income and medical bills, which amounted to RM113,524.08 in her suit.
