MELAKA: New guidelines will be introduced for trishaw riders following feedback from tourists that some of the older ones were struggling to pedal their bikes, says city mayor Datuk Shadan Othman.

He said there had been instances when trishaw riders, due to exhaustion and health conditions, sought the help of passengers to pedal their bikes.
