SPM student gets licence after writing to PM
BUTTERWORTH: A student sitting for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination received a free motorcycle licence after writing to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to seek help. Nurul Amani Zabani, 17 and her mother Asma Aziz, 51, were among 993 recipients at the MyLesen B2 Licence Presentation Ceremony for Penang, officiated by Road Transport Department director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli at the PICCA Convention Centre. Nurul Amani, an underprivileged only child, had submitted the letter during Anwar's recent visit to Penang, citing financial struggles following her father's death. "My family is poor, my father has passed away, and it's just me and my mother now. With a motorcycle licence, I no longer feel afraid and can move about freely. Thank you for easing my family's burden. I'm also grateful to be able to get this licence together with my mother," she said. Asma, who works as a cleaner, said her husband died of diabetes six years ago. "When both of us received our licences together, we were truly grateful and moved," she said. Aedy said 15,000 individuals have benefitted from the MyLesen B2 programme nationwide, funded with an allocation of RM5.81 million.
