JOHOR BARU, July 16 ― The Malaysian government has decided to implement the Vehicle Entry Permit fee for all foreign vehicles entering Johor.

According to The Star, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak said the decision was made following a request made by the state.

“I have discussed the matter with Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and have also informed Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Wahid Omar of our decision.

“I have instructed him to inform the Road Transport Department (JPJ) so they can work out the details before the VEP is implemented,” he was quoted as saying by The Star during a buka puasa event organised by the state today.

“We will make an announcement later on the date of implementation and the rates for the VEP,” Najib added.

The prime minister also assured that a portion of the collection would be channelled to the state government.

Yesterday, Umno Youth wing chief Khairy Jamaluddin said it was time that Malaysia stopped playing nice, noting that Singaporeans have enjoyed free entry into the country despite their superior currency.
