JPJ Sarawak expressed its appreciation to all federal and state government agencies, as well as strategic partners, for their direct and indirect contributions. The department emphasised that such programmes not only provide practical benefits but also strengthen cooperation between institutions and the public.
The MyLesen B2 initiative continues to serve as an important platform for empowering communities, offering affordable and accessible licensing opportunities while promoting road safety awareness.
With thousands of successful candidates, the Bukit Assek programme stands as a model of effective collaboration and community engagement, reinforcing Sarawak’s commitment to improving mobility and safety for its residents.
