AMPANG, Oct 23 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today acknowledged complaints about local navigation app Tuju but urged users to be patient as its developer works to improve the service, amid the government’s ban on Waze for civil servants.

“If this ban has been bothersome, I apologise. But to me national security is more important,” he told reporters after performing Friday prayers here.

“I feel our own people shouldn’t (criticise Tuju’s developer) harshly. I know the app may have weaknesses but you can always use other apps. Be patient.”
