The Malaysian government is working on a targeted approach towards providing highway toll fare exemptions during festive seasons, prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has said, reported Bernama.
According to the prime minister, toll fare exemptions should only be provided to those of the B40 and M40 income demographic groups rather than everyone.
“Some have raised the issue of why the toll exemption is for everyone, even [wealthy owners of] luxury cars benefit, so perhaps we should be even more thorough to ensure that the lower-income groups are given special consideration,” said Anwar, who is also the finance minister.
“This is being refined. Works minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi has only outlined the basic principles, stating that we cannot continue to subsidise everything like electricity and fuel,” Anwar continued.
Earlier this week, works minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi announced that the government would no longer offer highway toll fare exemptions for festive season holidays starting this year. Yesterday, deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said that the offering of toll fare exemptions during festive seasons do not solve the issue of traffic congestion on highways.
