根据总理公署文告,基础建设统筹兼交通部长许文远在上周跌倒,导致左手骨折。

目前,他仍在留医接受治疗,预计在数周后才能重返工作岗位。许文远休养病假期间,外交部长维文将暂代交通部长职务。

为了确保与新马有关交通的双边谈判不受影响,身兼交通部长职务的维文将代理许文远的工作。

此外,交通部两位高级政务部长蓝彬明和普杰立,以及高级政务次长马炎庆,将在有关交通事务上,以及在国会辩论交通部的开支预算时,为维文提供协助。

在上月24日,许文远针对领空纠纷等议题,与马国交通部长陆兆福会面,许文远称已是第三次与后者会面,形容双方进行了“交心”讨论,同时也建议延长两项暂缓措施,即暂缓启用仪表降落系统(ILS)以及暂缓宣布新山巴西古当上空成为永久禁飞区。展缓期限延至三月底。

据了解,许文远将会在本周期间动手术。
