PETALING JAYA : Transport minister Loke Siew Fook says he has ordered all public transport, including Keretapi Tanah Melayu Bhd (KTMB) and Prasarana Malaysia Bhd's train stations, to operate as usual tomorrow. In a Facebook post, he said the Madani government 'defends freedom of assembly, including for those not aligned with the government'. 'We cannot return to the times when democracy was oppressed to the point that Parliament was shut down. 'More importantly, our public transport must continue to function so that the majority can carry out their weekend activities without being disturbed by the opposition's rally. 'I encourage all rally participants tomorrow to use public transport so that traffic congestion in the capital city can be minimised,' he said. A mass rally organised by Perikatan Nasional is expected to take place in Kuala Lumpur tomorrow to call for the resignation of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. Earlier today, KTMB denied issuing orders for the closure of its Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) and Kuala Lumpur stations, after a notice made the rounds on social media. When a netizen asked about the notice in the comment section of one of KTMB's Facebook posts, the firm said there had been no official announcement from the management. The notice said that the BNM and Kuala Lumpur KTM stations would be closed from 9am to 5pm tomorrow.
