Dr. Louis Zabaneh, Minister of Transport

“Yesterday we had the inaugural meeting of the transport board, where he had representation from persons who are in the sector who have experience in transportation and then we have a representative from the police department, MIDH, and a representative from the bus association. So together, along with the department of transport, the seven members are now engaged in the duties assigned to this body and so, we have great people on the board and I anticipate they will be able to move forward expeditiously with their duties. Haven gotten feedback from experiences in the past, one of the first things we did yesterday was to have thorough training with respect to all the rules and regulations pertaining to transportation. I think that was important. Although we have people who were chosen for the experience in the sector, we just wanted to make sure that they are fully aware of the latest regulations there right now.”
