“CAB is cooperating with 15 taxi associations in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor to restore the image of taxi drivers and limousine especially those taking passengers in Klang Valley and compete with the illegal taxi service.
“CAB will also provide subsidies for taxi drivers for vehicle maintenance in panel workshops at a cheap price,” he said.
