PARLIAMENT | Transport Minister Anthony Loke has affirmed that Putrajaya will proceed with its crackdown on overloaded lorries, despite “pressure” and “threats” aimed at softening the ministry’s approach.

Addressing the Dewan Rakyat today, Loke (Harapan-Seremban) slammed lawmakers, including backbenchers, who had raised concerns on the ministry’s enforcement actions, accusing such parliamentarians of “acting as spokespersons” for lorries carrying excessive loads.
