BINTANGOR (Aug 1): About 1,500 participants are expected to take part in the MyLesen programme in the Meradong constituency, scheduled to run from August to November 2025, said Meradong assemblyman Datuk Ding Kuong Hiing.
He said the programme, approved by the Sarawak Transport Ministry, targets eligible residents who have yet to obtain their B2 motorcycle licence.
'We hope those in Meradong who qualify will take full advantage of this opportunity to obtain a valid B2 licence,' he told reporters on Wednesday.
Ding added that the programme offers a valuable opportunity for students aged 16 and above to acquire their motorcycle licence at a subsidised rate.
'The programme helps ease the financial burden, as each participant only needs to pay RM250,' he said.
Registration forms are available at the Meradong Service Centre or at Ing Motor Sarikei motorcycle shop.
Earlier, Ding received a courtesy visit from Road Transport Department (JPJ) Sarikei branch chief Yusuf Andan to discuss the programme's rollout in Meradong.
Both Ding and Yusuf also visited SMK Kai Chung hall and the Bintangor Community Hall ― among the proposed venues for the programme ― to inspect their readiness. Ding Kuong Hiing lead Meradong MyLesen programme
