Really kah?






At the base of it, a driver requires 2 things to use a OKU parking spot:

An OKU sticker (displayed on the vehicle)
An OKU card (to be produced on request or displayed in the car)
However, it should be mentioned, that not all disabilities are physical, and there are separate categories for those mental disabilities as well. The OKU card is issued by the Social Welfare Department (JKM) upon a medical examination by a government medical officer who will then state the nature and type of the disability, as well as whether the disability is temporary or permanent. This also means that not everyone with an OKU card may be issued with an OKU sticker.

The OKU sticker is only distributed by the Road Traffic Department (JPJ) upon completing the process and submitting documents required by the department. The conditions for application for the OKU stickers as laid down by JPJ are as stated below:

Application may be submitted by the registered owner, beneficiary, or representative of the organization/association.
Vehicle registered under the name of the disabled persons possessing OKU Card with the reference number that starts with ' PH ' (disabled persons with physical disability) or ' CA ' (old OKU Card reference number issued by the Social Welfare Department in Sarawak) or;
The vehicle has been registered under code uses IT (vehicles for disabled people) or;
A vehicle owned by organization/association of the disabled who have registered /received confirmation from the Department of Welfare.
However, some municipal councils also provide free OKU stickers, but the same requires must be met. It’s best to call or check your local council’s website to see if this is available for you.
