<div class="segment-body">
<div class="text">
<div class="">
<p>In a <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://www.facebook.com/myrapid/posts/780657294096755">statement</a> yesterday, 14 January, Prasarana announced that the <b>OKU Smile pass</b> will officially roll out next month.</p>
<p>This pass is available for both <b>existing Prasarana OKU concession cardholders</b> and <b>new applicants who are persons with disabilities</b>.</p>
<p>&#8220;The introduction of this initiative is a follow-up to the announcement by Transport Minister Anthony Loke on 21 December about a free fare incentive for the disabled community for all rail and bus services operated by Prasarana,&#8221; stated the public transport company wholly owned by the Finance Ministry.</p>
<p>It added that existing Prasarana OKU concession cardholders can activate the OKU Smile pass at any Rapid KL LRT, MRT, Monorail, BRT, and selected bus hub counters beginning today, 15 January.</p>
