SHAH ALAM: The Road Transport Department (JPJ) will collaborate with the Immigration Department to carry out integrated enforcement operations against companies or lorry operators employing foreign nationals as drivers without valid driving licences.

JPJ senior enforcement director Datuk Muhammad Kifli Ma Hassan stated that this approach follows repeated cases of lorry drivers, particularly garbage truck drivers, found driving without valid licences and misusing work permits, including those employed by cleaning companies owned by the Selangor government.
