(Picture shows the lady asking potential passengers where they are heading ....)
I must apologise for the “poor quality” of these pictures taken.
I snapped it earlier this morning with my cellular phone when I was waiting for LadyJenn, at the bus stand near Bank Islam, Jalan Kulas.
These days we have plenty mode of transportation to get us around.
You can choose to go by bus, taxi or motorcycles. No, we don’t have LRT or something similar yet. Those are found only in West Malaysia, or rather Semenanjung Malaysia.
Bu to get you somewhere, if you’re in Kuching even using this “old” beat up Saga will give you a surprise.
This is exactly what this lady is doing. She is soliciting for customers.
I “caught” her on pictures as she was about to leave after getting enough passengers to board her “taxi.”
She is one of the many un-licensed operators in Kuching city! Others are using vans.
Now, my question is how safe are these vehicles? To apply for a license to operate this service is not as simple as said.
But its definite these passengers are taking a great risk because by using these services, they are not covered by any insurance coverage if any accident was to happen to them?
The authorities should look into this matter with greater concern as problems may arise later if these matters are not tackled properly.
(After she has gathered enough passengers, off she went with them to their destination)
