Transport minister gives Isa Samad a week to quit SPAD

(MMO) – Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) chairman Tan Sri Isa Samad has one week to resign the post, after which he will be unceremoniously removed, said Anthony Loke today.

Loke made the offer in a press conference following an earlier announcement by the prime minister that the commission will be absorbed by his ministry.

“SPAD chairman Isa Samad has to resign immediately. As a former minister, I hope he will do the honourable way and voluntarily resign.

“I would prefer not to terminate the posts or having to issue the termination letter,” said Loke, who also extended the “invitation” to other political appointees under his ministry.
