Minister of Finance (Incorporated) has removed Tajuddin Abdul Rahman as the chairperson of Prasarana Malaysia Bhd today.

In a letter to Tajuddin, Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz said the removal was with immediate effect.

Minister of Finance Incorporated is the sole shareholder in Prasarana, which owns much of Malaysia's public transport networks.

This includes the Kelana Jaya LRT line, which saw an accident on Monday when two trains collided, leaving dozens injured, six critically.
