<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1635146318/unsigned/yjst9rhehmufcpw8zcrf.jpg" alt="" width="350" height="233" />
Deputy Minister, Datuk Rosol Wahid mentioned that the complaints can be made through email directed to <a href="mailto:adu.khidmatpenghantarmakanan@kpdnhep.gov.my">adu.khidmatpenghantarmakanan@kpdnhep.gov.my</a> so appropriate action can be taken by the responsible authority.
Rosol explained, 1903 complaints have been recorded last year while 946 complaints increased in number since January to August this year made in subjecting to FoodPanda company.
On the other hand, GrabFood received 30 complaints in 2020 and another 43 complaints about the company from January till August this year.
The ministry is proactively engaged with all major stakeholders in the p-hailing industry, particularly Foodpanda and GrabFood, to resolve all difficulties, including late payments to traders and high commission rates.
&ldquo;Some p-hailing companies claim that the delay in payment is due to problems with their system. They promise to improve their system. There are also companies that want to lower their commission rates,&rdquo; he claimed.

K-pop royalty Super Junior is set to make a grand return to Malaysia in 2026 as part of their global Super Show 10 tour, marking their 20th anniversary in the music industry. The veteran boy band will perform live in Kuala Lumpur on 17 January 2026, at the Axiata Arena, much to the delight of their long-standing Malaysian fanbase.
The concert is part of a wider world tour that will see the group performing in 15 cities across Asia, the Americas, and Japan. This celebratory run also coincides with the release of their highly anticipated 12th studio album, scheduled to drop on 12 July 2025&mdash;their first full album in nearly three years.
The Kings of the Hallyu Wave Who Never Miss a Beat
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ec2bf76dd11ed38bba1d97473b16f5d20d4229034715b300881276163d1da800" />
Debuting in 2005 under SM Entertainment, Super Junior stands as one of the most iconic and influential boy groups in K-pop history. Pioneers of the Hallyu Wave, the group&rsquo;s blend of talent, charisma, and longevity has left a lasting mark on the global music scene.
Originally debuting with twelve members and later expanding to thirteen with Kyuhyun, the current active lineup includes Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun. Former members Han Geng, Kibum, and Kangin departed between 2011 and 2019, while Sungmin officially stepped away from group activities in 2025.

Super Junior achieved a major breakthrough with their 2009 smash hit &ldquo;Sorry, Sorry&rdquo;, a track that not only swept domestic charts but also ignited a global frenzy, helping to propel K-pop into the international spotlight. Other signature hits such as &ldquo;Bonamana,&rdquo; &ldquo;Mr. Simple,&rdquo; &ldquo;No Other,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Sexy, Free &amp; Single&rdquo; further cemented their status as trailblazers of the genre.
The group&rsquo;s accolades speak volumes: 13 Mnet Asian Music Awards, 19 Golden Disc Awards, and even a Teen Choice Award for International Artist. Their live shows, known as &ldquo;Super Show&rdquo; tours, have attracted millions of fans across the globe, with Malaysia remaining a key stop throughout the years. Most recently, they performed at Kuala Lumpur&rsquo;s Axiata Arena in August 2024 as part of their Super Show Spin-off: Halftime tour.
After nearly two decades, Super Junior remains not only a household name but also a symbol of reinvention and consistency in the ever-evolving K-pop industry. With a dedicated fanbase known as ELF (Ever Lasting Friends), they continue to thrive&mdash;proof that legends don&rsquo;t fade, they evolve.

The Super Show 10 tour is not just a milestone celebration&mdash;it&rsquo;s a tribute to the evolution of a group that has stayed relevant in the ever-changing K-pop landscape. While fans can certainly expect nostalgic performances of classic hits, the group also plans to showcase new material from their upcoming album, providing a mix of the old and new for loyal fans and fresh audiences alike.
As one of the few second-generation K-pop groups still actively touring and releasing music, Super Junior&rsquo;s longevity is a testament to their adaptability, talent, and global appeal.
What&rsquo;s Next for Super Junior Fans in Malaysia?
While fans eagerly await the official ticket launch for the January 2026 Kuala Lumpur concert, anticipation continues to grow on social media. The upcoming show promises to be a spectacular blend of music, choreography, and heartfelt fan moments&mdash;something Super Junior has perfected over the years.
If previous tours are anything to go by, Malaysian ELF (Ever Lasting Friends&mdash;the group&rsquo;s official fanbase) can expect an evening filled with high-energy anthems, interactive fan service, and memorable speeches that reflect on the group&rsquo;s 20-year journey.
So, whether you&rsquo;ve been following them since U and Don&rsquo;t Don or only recently discovered their catalogue, Super Show 10 is shaping up to be an unmissable experience for anyone who has ever danced along to a Super Junior track.
Stay tuned for ticketing updates and official seating plans&mdash;Super Junior&rsquo;s 20th anniversary celebration in Kuala Lumpur is bound to be one for the history books.

After nearly two years, Super Junior returns to KL in 2026!

Super Junior To Celebrate 20th Anniversary With ‘Super Show 10’ In KL!

What began as an ordinary morning on Monday (30 June), quickly spiralled into a large-scale security and traffic operation near the Menora Tunnel in Perak. At approximately 9.30am, a highway maintenance worker discovered a suspected explosive device while conducting routine landscaping work along Kilometre 265 of the North-South Expressway (PLUS), not far from Jelapang.
The maintenance supervisor, a 51-year-old man, was reportedly clearing vegetation when he noticed an object partially buried in the underbrush. Realising it resembled a military-grade explosive, he immediately informed the PLUS highway patrol unit, who then escalated the matter to the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM).
Confirmation of a Mortar Bomb
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/277c5f588480819805ab86c406aa25ae06f35bc52cc8afafb0057d753003c42b" />
Upon inspection by bomb squad experts from the Perak Bomb Disposal Unit, it was confirmed that the object was indeed an old mortar bomb&mdash;likely a remnant from a past era, though its origins remain unclear. Such explosive ordnance, though rare, is occasionally uncovered in areas that may have seen military movement or exercises in previous decades.
Perak Police Chief Datuk Noor Hisam Nordin said the immediate response from both the police and PLUS personnel ensured the site was quickly secured and no civilians were put in harm&rsquo;s way.
&ldquo;Following the report, a team comprising personnel from the police, the highway patrol, and our bomb disposal unit was deployed for immediate assessment and containment. The situation was treated with utmost seriousness,&rdquo; he stated.
Controlled Detonation and Safety Radius
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/68ba92e61898cc7e19b7294e780090536635639b41cdaa9b2b54bc5b8f529e15" />
The bomb squad took nearly an hour to carry out the neutralisation of the device. A controlled detonation was performed with strict safety protocols in place. Authorities set a blast radius of up to 200 metres, clearing the surrounding area to ensure no lives or property were at risk during the procedure.
The successful disposal of the mortar shell prevented any casualties or damage, but not before significant disruption was caused along one of Malaysia&rsquo;s busiest highways.

PLUS Initiated Temporary Closure of Menora Tunnel Stretch
As a precautionary measure, PLUS Malaysia Berhad initiated a full closure of the Kuala Kangsar&ndash;Ipoh stretch of the North-South Expressway at 3.02pm. The move was essential to ensure the safety of road users while bomb disposal operations were underway.
Northbound traffic was diverted to the Ipoh Selatan Toll Plaza, while vehicles travelling south were redirected to the Kuala Kangsar Toll Plaza. The highway operator made the announcement via its official X (formerly Twitter) account, warning motorists of expected delays and advising them to use alternative routes where possible.
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f0e46a17bb91cc2df35172abdee27f2c25da6acfdb64b184f5378d691817e4fc" />
The highway closure led to significant congestion along the affected stretch, particularly for southbound travellers. By mid-afternoon, traffic queues had grown to more than 15 kilometres, frustrating drivers and bringing traffic flow to a near standstill in certain sections.
Despite traffic management efforts and public advisories, thousands of motorists found themselves caught in the backlog. Authorities urged patience and caution, reminding road users to remain alert and follow all traffic diversion instructions for their own safety.
Gradual Reopening of Lanes
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/61b768f1c61d113a979e734308cb72a74cba8a619d04b85154fe8cb47398072b" />
After confirming that the area was safe and the explosive had been fully neutralised, PLUS began reopening the lanes in stages. Northbound lanes were the first to resume normal operations at 3.15pm, followed by full reopening of the southbound lanes by 3.44pm.
Perak police confirmed that the incident was handled without injury or damage and praised the efficient coordination between agencies that made the safe resolution possible.
Public Praise and Reassurance
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/66da0800b69d877a4306b68ff31faa59614bba00d2309ef65dcff4775ce42eca" />
The incident has drawn praise from members of the public, particularly for the quick thinking of the maintenance worker who initially reported the device, as well as the professionalism displayed by the authorities involved. Social media users commended the transparency of PLUS and the efficiency of the Royal Malaysia Police in handling what could have been a far more dangerous scenario.
Datuk Noor Hisam reiterated that public safety remains the top priority and reminded Malaysians to immediately report any suspicious objects to the authorities, rather than attempting to move or inspect them on their own.
Old Bombs, New Risks
This event is a reminder that even decades-old explosives can still pose significant threats. Malaysia, like many other countries with a history of military activity, occasionally sees the discovery of forgotten or buried ordnance. While most are inactive, bomb squads always operate on the assumption that any device could be live.
Authorities advise contractors, workers, and members of the public&mdash;particularly those involved in construction, agriculture, or landscaping&mdash;to be cautious and observant during field work.

The old mortar was safely neutralised — but the bigger concern remains: could there be more hidden in the area?

Menora Tunnel Bomb Scare: Mortar Shell Discovery Triggers Traffic Chaos And Bomb Squad Response

Few roles in cinema are as iconic&mdash;and as burdened with expectation&mdash;as James Bond. For decades, playing 007 has been considered the peak of an actor&rsquo;s career, a role that guarantees international fame. But it also comes with an immense amount of scrutiny, legacy pressure, and public expectation.
That&rsquo;s exactly why Henry Golding, the Malaysian-British star best known for Crazy Rich Asians, isn&rsquo;t too keen on the idea. Speaking candidly during the red carpet premiere of his latest film, The Old Guard 2, Golding addressed speculation that he&rsquo;s in the running to become the next Bond&mdash;a topic he admits has followed him since his breakout performance in 2018.
&ldquo;A Nightmare Every Actor Has&rdquo;
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9c90017f537956eccb5545c3d02c12086cb020e34d859becd510e63be7f3b97d" />
&ldquo;I think that&rsquo;s every actor&rsquo;s kind of nightmare,&rdquo; said Golding when asked about possibly succeeding Daniel Craig as 007. &ldquo;You&rsquo;re not just stepping into a role&mdash;you&rsquo;re stepping into a franchise that&rsquo;s been around for over 60 years, with some of the biggest names in cinematic history behind it.&rdquo;
His comment might sound surprising coming from a leading man who has been praised for his charisma and suaveness, qualities typically associated with Bond. But Golding made it clear that it&rsquo;s the weight of the role&mdash;not the role itself&mdash;that gives him pause.
&ldquo;There&rsquo;s this massive legacy hanging over it. You&rsquo;re not just expected to be good; you&rsquo;re expected to reinvent the character, to live up to what came before, and to somehow keep millions of fans happy.&rdquo;
Cultural Pressure and Fan Scrutiny
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/648a5a5b544fbfc4c329ff7788b90b258902ed951b98e3beac8029c4be50f214" />
While many actors would leap at the opportunity, Golding is refreshingly honest about the cultural pressures that come with it. &ldquo;Maybe I&rsquo;m just a p****,&rdquo; he said with a laugh. &ldquo;But I think I would love it so much more if there wasn&rsquo;t that overhanging cultural pressure.&rdquo;
He isn&rsquo;t wrong. Each new Bond actor has faced intense fan scrutiny before even stepping into the role. When Daniel Craig was cast, many fans baulked at the idea of a blond-haired Bond&mdash;until Casino Royale proved the doubters wrong. And that level of criticism hasn&rsquo;t gone away.
Golding&rsquo;s concern is understandable: in the age of social media and rapid fan reactions, any misstep would be amplified globally.
An Expanded Universe of Agents?
Rather than see Bond as the only option, Golding floated the idea of broadening the franchise&rsquo;s scope. &ldquo;Why can&rsquo;t they bring out more agents or more double-0s? That would be so much more fun,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;There just aren&rsquo;t the same restraints and expectations.&rdquo;
It&rsquo;s an idea that has gained traction among fans and industry insiders alike. The Bond universe has long hinted at a wider world of agents&mdash;after all, James is 007, not 001. Golding&rsquo;s suggestion could breathe new life into the franchise while offering actors greater creative freedom.
A Franchise Slowly Opening Up
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b4d57c92d03bc0f8a7cc387d7f5c214a1d527565b281c8bceadd00c9f9678bf7" />
Born in Malaysia and raised in the UK, Golding has also weighed in on the long-running conversation about diversity in the Bond franchise. &ldquo;Isn&rsquo;t it great that we&rsquo;re even having this conversation now?&rdquo; he told Attitude magazine in an earlier interview.
&ldquo;Why not a Black Bond, an Asian Bond, a mixed-race Bond, or a non-distinct Bond? We&rsquo;re at that point where we should stop asking &lsquo;if&rsquo; and start asking &lsquo;when&rsquo;.&rdquo;
Yet he was also pragmatic about the realities. &ldquo;The world might not be ready just yet,&rdquo; he admitted. &ldquo;I mean, I&rsquo;m Asian, and everyone&rsquo;s fighting for a diverse Bond&mdash;sorry, white guys.&rdquo;
Still, the fact that he&rsquo;s even part of the conversation is, in his view, an honour. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s flattering. Truly. But I think there are other roles within that universe that could be just as exciting&mdash;without the baggage.&rdquo;
Denis Villeneuve Confirmed as Bond&rsquo;s New Director
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f556acdd71e990410d120a0ac2bcb664e625ca6a98dd8420f6383abd64d53f4e" />
While the search for the next Bond actor continues, the creative direction of the franchise has officially changed hands. Acclaimed filmmaker Denis Villeneuve, best known for Dune and Blade Runner 2049, has been confirmed as the director for the next James Bond film under Amazon MGM Studios.
The studio, which gained creative control of the Bond intellectual property in a historic deal, aims to reinvigorate the franchise with Villeneuve&rsquo;s bold, visionary style. He will also serve as executive producer alongside Tanya Lapointe, with producers Amy Pascal and David Heyman attached.
&ldquo;James Bond is sacred territory for me,&rdquo; Villeneuve said in a statement. &ldquo;Some of my earliest film memories were watching Sean Connery in Dr. No with my father. This is a huge responsibility&mdash;but also a massive honour.&rdquo;
Amazon MGM&rsquo;s decision marks the first full reboot of the franchise since acquiring MGM for $8.5 billion in 2022. With Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson stepping back from producing duties, the series is poised to enter a new creative chapter.
So, Who Will Be the Next Bond?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0c3b23d2b8d7027bec19009439586696d35f969751fd8d8fa620a96cbeddc435" />
With Daniel Craig&rsquo;s tenure officially over following No Time to Die, the hunt for his replacement continues. Names floated over the years include Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, Henry Cavill, Reg&eacute;-Jean Page, James Norton, Richard Madden, Damson Idris, Cillian Murphy, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.
Yet, with Villeneuve&rsquo;s recent appointment, the direction of the next film could influence casting in unexpected ways. Will the next Bond stick to the tried-and-tested formula&mdash;or will the studio opt for someone who breaks convention entirely?
Golding&rsquo;s Spy Future Still on the Table
While Golding may not want to carry the Bond mantle, that doesn&rsquo;t mean he&rsquo;s ruling out roles in the spy genre altogether. &ldquo;I&rsquo;d love to play a secret agent, just maybe not the secret agent,&rdquo; he said with a grin.
His honesty about the pitfalls of the role is a rare glimpse into the internal debates actors face behind the scenes. For now, the search for 007 continues&mdash;but perhaps the real evolution of the Bond universe lies not in who plays him next, but in how the story itself evolves.
Hard to Beat the Swagger of Daniel Craig
One thing is certain&mdash;whoever steps into the role next will have big shoes to fill. Daniel Craig brought a gritty elegance to the character that redefined Bond for a new generation. His mix of raw physicality, emotional depth, and that unmistakable swagger made him arguably one of the most memorable 007s since Sean Connery.
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZIc4qOWZM_A" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
But No Time to Die not only closed the chapter on Craig&rsquo;s portrayal&mdash;it killed him off entirely, a shocking creative decision that has left fans divided and the franchise in uncharted territory. Replacing that kind of legacy isn&rsquo;t just about casting&mdash;it&rsquo;s about redefining what Bond is in a post-Craig world.

Henry Golding On the James Bond Role: “A Nightmare Every Actor Fears”

Ever wondered how your online orders arrive so swiftly&mdash;especially in the notoriously congested Klang Valley? As e-commerce continues its meteoric rise in Malaysia, consumers expect ever-faster deliveries. Yet few pause to consider what powers this rapid logistics chain behind the scenes. Beyond the delivery bikes and vans weaving through traffic lies a new, unexpected player: Malaysia&rsquo;s Light Rail Transit (LRT).
Now, an innovative local logistics firm is transforming how parcels move across the city&mdash;bringing deliveries onto the rails.
A Green Shift in Urban Logistics
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8f617aef1eec97c9eb67fa302b2361403cb2b2649b1bf745de9a416db4a65177" /> Pfeiffer (left) and Gueguen at Diolko&rsquo;s hub at Putra Heights LRT station.
According to the Asian Transport Observatory, Malaysia&rsquo;s transport sector emitted 66.35 million tonnes of carbon dioxide in 2023, accounting for nearly a quarter of the nation's total. The surge in online shopping only worsens these numbers, with delivery vehicles making countless trips daily.
Enter Diolko Logistics Malaysia Sdn Bhd. Based in Cheras, the company has partnered with Prasarana Malaysia Bhd to pioneer an eco-conscious delivery system that utilises the existing LRT network and electric vehicles (EVs). The result: reduced emissions, less traffic congestion, and faster delivery times.
Since its soft launch in July 2023, Diolko has successfully delivered over 6,000 parcels via this hybrid rail-electric model&mdash;cutting carbon emissions by an estimated 70%.
How the Delivery System Works
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/79eddb0f4c3e7690a3df4d22d9cb3cd5601426bd1ced52f4a989d071b86118fd" />
Diolko&rsquo;s system currently centres around three LRT stations: Awan Besar, Ara Damansara, and Putra Heights&mdash;the latter functioning as the central sorting hub. Parcels are first collected from clients using electric vans, then sent to Putra Heights for sorting and classification.
The sorted parcels are loaded into secure, APAD-certified trolleys, labelled by destination, and transported via LRT during off-peak hours (post-11pm) to avoid passenger disruption. Each train can accommodate up to six trolleys per trip, with clear separation from commuter areas.
At the destination stations, electric motorcycles take over the last-mile delivery. Diolko currently employs two electric vans and eight e-bikes, with plans to expand both fleets.
Expanding in Phases
Diolko has outlined a three-phase expansion strategy. Phase One will see full deployment along the Kelana Jaya and Ampang/Sri Petaling LRT lines, with new hubs at Gombak and Ampang stations by the end of 2025.
Phase Two will extend to major MRT lines, including Kwasa Damansara, Kajang, and Putrajaya, targeting urban centres like Cheras and Kota Damansara. Phase Three will encompass the upcoming LRT3 line&mdash;set to serve Shah Alam and Klang upon its September 2025 launch.
The ultimate goal: a network of at least 15 strategic delivery hubs across the Klang Valley by 2027.
Room for Growth, But Not Without Concerns
Despite praise for its sustainability, experts caution that scaling the model may be challenging. Dr Dazmin Daud, an assistant professor at UCSI University, noted that LRT infrastructure was never intended for freight.
&ldquo;As parcel volumes increase, the system may hit capacity constraints. Trains are built for people, not parcels,&rdquo; he said. He also emphasised the operational limitations tied to off-peak scheduling.
However, Dazmin acknowledged that leveraging existing infrastructure avoids additional maintenance costs, as rail operations are already covered by Prasarana. He advised the government to carefully vet future logistics operators to ensure efficiency and avoid service delays.
Practical Barriers: Space and Reach
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c58b588a707992d256876f97caf94fa92e7d392ece51d1903437593da3dd0ce0" />
Some critics point out that several LRT stations&mdash;especially older or centrally located ones&mdash;lack sufficient space for handling parcels or receiving e-bike riders. Furthermore, not all areas are well-connected to the rail network, with towns like Rawang still out of reach.
Kuugan Thangarajoo, a logistics hub manager, suggested that increasing the number of coaches or introducing cargo-specific trips could help. However, he warned this might interfere with regular passenger services. He also advocated for the introduction of parcel locker systems or self-collection points to improve accessibility.
Diolko&rsquo;s Chief Operating Officer, Onno Pfeiffer, stressed that not every LRT station would be turned into a logistics hub. Stations with limited space or high footfall, like KLCC, are intentionally avoided.
&ldquo;We prioritise stations with better accessibility, like Bukit Bintang, to serve wider areas from a single point. Our trolleys are loaded in under 30 seconds. If we miss a train, we simply wait for the next one&mdash;we never disrupt passenger services,&rdquo; Pfeiffer said.
Prasarana&rsquo;s Vision: Urban Transport Meets Smart Logistics
Public transport operator Prasarana believes the integration of parcel logistics and urban rail can transform Malaysian cities.
&ldquo;By moving goods via rail, we&rsquo;re not only reducing congestion and emissions, but also building a foundation for multimodal logistics systems,&rdquo; the company said in a statement.
Plans are underway to reimagine select stations into multi-use hubs, featuring cargo bays, smart lockers, and integrated digital platforms. Prasarana also aims to incorporate virtual hubs and more EVs to further cut emissions and delays.
Importantly, the operator remains open to collaborating with other logistics providers&mdash;paving the way for an ecosystem where public transport and parcel delivery coexist. As Diolko&rsquo;s urban delivery model continues its rollout, it may become a regional benchmark in sustainable logistics&mdash;showing that the trains we ride to work might one day be delivering our parcels too.

From Rails To Doorsteps: How Malaysia’s LRT Is Empowering Eco-Friendly Parcel Deliveries

Malaysia is facing a significant infrastructure challenge, with the Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan revealing that RM4 billion is required annually to repair and maintain the country&rsquo;s damaged roads. However, the Ministry of Public Works (KKR) has only received half that amount due to financial limitations faced by the federal government.
This persistent shortfall in funding, combined with worsening weather patterns and increasing wear from heavy vehicles, has made road maintenance a growing national concern.
Heavy Rain and Overloaded Lorries Blamed
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/828881297a664013bf639d30078bb90647bc65cb4367b520f451f7fd4ed93e7f" />
Speaking during a press conference after officiating the Bachok UMNO division delegates&rsquo; meeting on 28 June, Ahmad Maslan highlighted two key culprits behind the deteriorating state of roads across Malaysia: adverse weather conditions and overloaded heavy vehicles.
&ldquo;Due to heavy rains and overloaded cargo vehicles such as lorries and trailers, our roads are wearing down faster than expected,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;We need RM4 billion to properly upgrade and maintain the road network nationwide, but we&rsquo;ve never received such an amount. Typically, we are allocated close to RM2 billion.&rdquo;
The limited funds received each year are insufficient to address the full scale of the problem, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas where roads are ageing rapidly and require urgent resurfacing or rebuilding.
Ageing Roads, Mounting Backlog
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/30f1fdec6ec0fa52881d8093cf14a1d47312d7c3a1d6a7b565188726dd4b9860" />
According to Ahmad, many roads across the country are now past their prime and in dire need of repaving. He emphasised that the current allocation is not enough to clear the maintenance backlog.
&ldquo;There are roads that are decades old and in need of urgent repairs. Without adequate funding, we can only do patchwork, which doesn&rsquo;t solve the issue in the long term,&rdquo; he explained.
In addition to regular wear and tear, climate change and Malaysia&rsquo;s increasingly unpredictable monsoon seasons have further worsened road degradation, especially in flood-prone areas.
Redirecting Road Tax and Fines: A Missed Opportunity?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6b8d768eef28232c56d8cab66ed1010f09de392da9fbfe4cad6aaba17547706d" />
Ahmad revealed that the Works Ministry had previously proposed a mechanism to ease its budgetary burden: redirecting revenue collected by the Road Transport Department (JPJ)&mdash;such as road taxes and traffic summonses&mdash;towards funding road maintenance.
&ldquo;This proposal was tabled some time ago. We asked whether road tax and speeding fines collected by JPJ could be channelled to our Ministry to help fund maintenance work,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;However, there has been no response so far.&rdquo;
The lack of follow-up on this proposal has sparked renewed debate on whether the government&rsquo;s road-related revenues are being put to best use, especially when infrastructure quality continues to deteriorate.
Calls to Tax Heavy Vehicles Gain Traction
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7f4bfadff6959b0df59204ae29e915c77c572f818c66b3d980dc266f1e677394" />
With limited government funds and rising road repair costs, some experts and members of the public have suggested that higher taxes on heavy vehicles could provide a sustainable solution. These vehicles, which often travel with loads well above the legal weight limit, are a significant factor in damaging road surfaces.
Ahmad acknowledged these calls, stating that the Ministry is open to such ideas but stressed that the final decision would fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Transport.
&ldquo;If there are suggestions to raise taxes on heavy vehicles, it will be up to the Finance and Transport Ministries to evaluate and decide,&rdquo; he said.
Expert Opinion: Ring-Fencing Revenue for Repairs
Transport and infrastructure experts have supported the idea of increasing levies on heavy vehicles. Professor Law Teik Hua, head of the Road Safety Research Centre at Universiti Putra Malaysia, previously proposed that such funds could be earmarked for road maintenance to alleviate the Ministry&rsquo;s RM4 billion annual requirement.
Analysts believe that with a ring-fenced fund sourced from road usage-related taxes, Malaysia could adopt a more consistent and predictable road maintenance schedule, rather than relying on annual budget allocations which are vulnerable to economic fluctuations and political priorities.
Looking Ahead: Budget Hope and Policy Review
Despite the current limitations, Ahmad Maslan said his Ministry remains hopeful for increased allocations in future national budgets. He reiterated the urgent need for a long-term solution to Malaysia&rsquo;s infrastructure woes.
&ldquo;Our roads are vital not only for transportation but also for economic development, tourism, and public safety,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;We continue to push for better funding every year, and we hope that both public awareness and inter-ministerial cooperation will help us move forward.&rdquo;
With Malaysia&rsquo;s road network forming the backbone of its land transport system, the push for more sustainable funding and policy reform is gaining urgency. Whether through better tax redistribution or targeted levies on heavy users, one thing is clear: without more consistent investment, the cracks in the road&mdash;both literal and figurative&mdash;will only deepen.

At the same time, public frustration over government spending has been mounting. Just last week, many Malaysians took to social media to criticise the newly announced Kota Madani development, championed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, which is estimated to cost RM4 billion&mdash;the same amount the Works Ministry says is needed annually to repair roads.
While some acknowledged the Prime Minister&rsquo;s intent to leave behind a lasting legacy, others argued that basic infrastructure, particularly the state of roads, should take precedence. With frequent accidents, potholes, and city floods becoming all too common, many believe that addressing these urgent issues would better serve the rakyat than large-scale legacy projects.
The public sentiment reflects a growing demand for greater accountability and prioritisation in government spending, especially when the safety and daily convenience of Malaysians are directly at stake.

RM4 billion for roads... isn’t that what Kota Madani is costing too? 👀
