Reply by Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat:

1.     Active Mobility Advisory Panel members are selected to represent the various stakeholders and communities involved in the active mobility landscape, such as youths, seniors, cyclists, motorists, and relevant public agencies. Some members have professional or academic expertise relating to active mobility or transport, but this is not a requirement. All members have an interest in active mobility and have shared valuable perspectives during the discussions.
