PUCHONG, The Transport Ministry (MOT) does not reject any strategic partnerships with private parties to provide services for its agencies, but such partnerships needed to be done properly and required official approval. Its minister, Anthony Loke said the ministry did not want any company to launch or announce any services for government departments suddenly without the knowledge of the ministry itself. 'They should officially apply and present their plans, if they manage to convince us, there's no problem, but they need to follow the proper process,' he said at a media conference after officiating the groundbreaking and signing of the agreement to develop Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Tamil Castlefield here today. The Road Transport Ministry (JPJ) announced in a statement yesterday that neither the ministry nor the department had given any approval to an online insurance renewal platform, BJAK Sdn. Bhd. (BJAK) to conduct road tax renewal transaction services. The department also said that it viewed the cont ents of an advertisement posted on the website bjak.my and BJAK social media channels regarding such services very seriously.
