MIRI: A comprehensive discussions will be held with the Brunei government regarding Malaysia’s digital road tax, according to Transport Minister Anthony Loke.
This came in response to issues faced by Malaysian drivers at the Brunei border, where authorities demanded physical road tax documentation despite Malaysia’s shift to a digital system.
“We will initiate detailed talks with the Brunei government to address this issue and ensure our digital road tax is recognised,” Loke said after officiating at the Democratic Action Party (DAP) Sarawak’s annual convention here today.
He emphasised the convenience offered by the digital road tax, accessible through the MyJPJ mobile app.
“This is a step towards digitalising services provided by the Road Transport Department (RTD),” he added, highlighting the initiative launched by his ministry in February.
With the MyJPJ app, drivers can display their road tax data on their mobile devices, eliminating the need for physical stickers on vehicles.
Also present were DAP Sarawak Chairman Chong Chien Jen, Deputy Chairman Alice Lau Kiong Yieng, Vice Chairman Mordi Bimol, Vice Chairman Oscar Ling, and the party’s Secretary Alan Ling.
