Chang Khim said the selection of the 100th Smart Selangor Free Bus in Subang Jaya Municipal Council administration area for the SJ04 route was made based on the efforts of the Local Authority to realize the State Government’s intention.
He said, in terms of design, the 100th bus variant provided an extraordinary perspective on the achievement of the State Government with Subang Jaya Municipal Council.
