Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan has announced that the Malaysian government is expected to declare toll fee exemptions in conjunction with the Christmas celebration.
According to Bernama, the announcement, anticipated to be made on Friday, December 22, will confirm the date for toll exemptions during the festive period.
Maslan stated that the government allocates an average of RM21 million per day to highway concessionaires for toll exemptions.
In the current year, RM80.07 million was disbursed for toll-free initiatives during Hari Raya Aidilfitri, RM42.31 million for Deepavali, and RM41.21 million for the Chinese New Year.
The toll fee exemptions are part of the government’s efforts to facilitate smoother travel for citizens during festive seasons.
