HOW TO USE RAPID PENANG ON DEMAND
The Rapid Penang On-Demand service was introduced on 1 August 2024. Although many people have heard of it, the majority do not know what it is or how to use it.
In this article, I explain about Rapid Penang On-Demand, based on what I understand. If you are familiar with this article, please take a moment to read through it, and help me make the article even better.
There are also some questions which I myself have, such as, is it wheelchair friendly? I hope to get some answers if you can help me.
