In our report last week, it was revealed that “WWW 1” had set the record as the country’s most expensive vehicle registration number, with the bid for the plate registered at RM520,000. The price paid for it surpasses the previous record, which was RM300,100 forked out for “MCA 1” two years ago.
In total, the bids received for the series has amounted to more than RM64 million, and the entire “WWW” series is set to rake in an estimated RM11.3 million. The top 10 registrations alone were worth nearly RM2.3 million, which could bag a supercar, but surely no issue for those able to afford such items.
In all, the “WWW” series set a host of registration number records. A total of 18,243 applications were tendered for 4,908 numbers in the series during the bidding period, from April 30 to May 14. The remaining 5,091 numbers have become running numbers available to the public.
Essentially, all major value numbers, interesting and popular numbers, including the usual numbers that might have sentimental value or a specific purpose to the bidders, were all snapped up. The JPJ has released the results of the tender list on its portal, which can also be seen below. The official letters informing bidders of the bid outcome will be issued from June 6, and registration of WWW plates begin from June 15.
An interesting aside: the portal lists that the tender for the Penang “PKR” series is currently running. Wonder if that one is creating any fuss.

AI-generated Summary ✨
The comments largely focus on the controversy surrounding the "WWW" vehicle registration series, especially the high bid for WWW1, which many perceive as extravagant and a waste of taxpayer money. Some comments defend the Sultan of Johor's bidding as fair, noting that the money goes back to the government and benefits the rakyat through public services and development funding. Others criticize the excessive spending on luxury vehicle plates, questioning the priorities of the royalty and government. Several comments highlight transparency and argue that such auctions are open and fair, while some feel the funds could be better used for charity or public welfare. Overall, sentiments are mixed, with concerns over financial priorities and accusations of elitism versus defense of fair bidding processes.
