Ahli Parlimen DAP gesa LLM diberi 7 hari jelas isu TuJu

DAP lawmaker Lim Lip Eng has called for the Ministry of Works and Housing (KKR) to instruct the Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia (LLM) to provide written explanations and evidence within seven days regarding several issues concerning the TuJu project. Lim emphasized that this clarification should include training provided to the Prime Minister, the selection of Prosignal Consortium Sdn Bhd, the possibility of conflicts of interest, user safety, and any financial support for LLM.

He also wished for the explanation to be made public so that the public could assess the matter themselves, unless the information is genuinely difficult to obtain. Lim stated, "If proven to be a serious lack or misconduct, strict action must be taken. Do not make lower-level officials scapegoats while decisions are made by top management."

On Tuesday, a spokesperson for the government, Fahmi Fadzil, said that the top management of LLM must be accountable if the government is given inaccurate or misleading information about TuJu's capabilities. He discussed Hasni Mohammad, the president of LLM, who initially stated that TuJu was developed to improve highway service and not to directly compete with Waze.

Hasni raised the question of whether LLM and Prosignal were providing accurate information about TuJu's function during a safety committee meeting with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim on October 20. He who did not attend the meeting said that if information was given to the MKN and was misleading, it could not be taken lightly. On October 20, Anwar urged Malaysians to switch from Waze to TuJu, highlighting concerns about user data security and movement data, given Waze's connection to Israel.

The government's subsequent order to restrict the use of Waze among civil servants and efforts to promote TuJu sparked debates about the similarities between the two applications. However, TuJu later received complaints about technical glitches and navigation issues due to the increasing number of users. Prosignal apologized for the inconvenience and informed its technical team that they were working to fix and improve the navigation function of the app.
