kuat sembahyang kuat berdosa. Bismillah
PDRM should more often cracked down all this illegal bikes, its really annoying and irritating….should also impose heavy penalties including jail.
Thank you PDRM, JPJ and the others involved. Well done. But there is much more to be done. Pls go after all the other groups that still race all over JB. Just take their bikes away and fingerprint them. Repeat offenders on other people’s bikes deserve a free stay in a lockup and if their parents come to bail them, please put them in there as well for more quality family time together.
