Ex-Deputy Transport Minister: No Such Thing As Bribes For Driver's Licenses During My Time
He said officials caught violating the law were mostly isolated cases.
In a report by Chinese daily Sin Chew, Datuk Abdul Aziz Kaprawi said the practice of accepting bribes for driver's licenses didn't exist during his tenure as the Deputy Transport Minister
Aziz, who lost his Sri Gading seat to PPBM's Shaharudin Salleh in GE14, said there was no such culture and officials abided by the law.
He added that those caught violating the law were mostly isolated cases.
Aziz said he was made known of syndicates forging fake driver's licenses. However, he added that bribery for driver's licenses was unheard of.
Meanwhile, the director general of the Malaysian Institute Of Road Safety Research (MIROS) said the practice of bribing for driver's licenses has become a part of Malaysian "culture"
