Recently, we’ve been receiving several inquiries about a message circulating around WhatsApp and social media, claiming that vehicles with an engine capacity of 880 cc and above will be charged a higher road tax (and insurance) of 25% more, beginning January 2017. However, this is totally untrue according to the Road Transport Department (JPJ).
We contacted the department to seek clarification on the viral “news,” and an officer there has confirmed that the impending road tax hike is completely false, and urged the public not to believe and spread the word. He adds that for the time being, the department has no plans at all to increase the current road tax charge structure.
Since then, the department has issued an official statement on the matter, reaffirming all that was mentioned above. It also stated that it viewed the matter seriously as it could potentially create a severe misunderstanding within the public.

One look at it you know it is false news. 1.3 cc? What car is it? A toy?
Alooootttt of MY pipu belip news on fesbuk like 40,000….
Cool down, wait and see.
1.3cc? how stupid can malaysian be to believe such news..
Hidden due to lowcomment rating. Click here to see.
that engine capacity in your “example” is 1.3L, which is equal to 1300cc, not 1.3cc. you don’t even understand what you are trying to correct. stop being silly.
HAHAHAHAHHA Jason wait till you realize your mistake, you’ll want to hide under the blanket
say…jason did you fail your maths in school???
You’re pretty stupid, actually. 1.3, 2.4 etc refers to the liters displacement. 1.3 liter = 1300cc. Proton Iriz is 1.3liter. So you are telling me that all the moto are 0.25 cc? You bloody moron. You’re the definition of an uneducated Malaysian. Disgrace.
Iriz is 1.3L which is 1300cc. Jason, now who looks pretty stupid?
1300 cc
The Proton Edar webpage is showing 1.3L, not 1.3cc. In this case, you are the one who have not done any research.
man. I think I found one of those people that you’ve mentioned
Hey stupid, it is 1300cc. What they said is correct, no such thing as 1.3cc. 1.3L got lah, not 1.3cc.
don’t comment if you havent done your research.
sometimes, being a mummy boy is not really good… you asked how stupid malaysians can be, im not sure where you are from, but it looks like you are pretty stupid
1.3cc NOT equal to 1300cc. This is what happens when you study Math and Science in the wrong language.
I had not laughed hard for a long time reading through the comments section . Bravo Jason . 1.3cc is like a spurt of our semen . What engine size is that hahahahahhahaha .
Hahaha…I just want to add the insult hahahaha Jason please read
time and time again the public is making up fake news to discredit the government. The gov has never burdened the ppl, why do ppl always do this to hurt the government reputation? Crazy world we live in!

yea government “never” burdened the people, especially MO1, no they don’t burden, normally they will fart first with their mouth, and then they throw their feaces to the people. they just take the people’s money straight away from their pocket and the people can’t do anything about it. The government called it a donation, GST, or whatever faeces come out from their mouth, still bragging around somemore. hurt government reputation? does our current government has any reputation to hurt? nah.. please read more international news instead of RTM. Don’t forget our MO1, he is out there indulging with our malaysian hard earn money. if the money were used to develope our country then nothing much to say, but you see what our G doing anything good to our country? only when the GE coming soon they give out a little bit sweetness to those people form ULU places, to make them vote for them, using our malaysian’s money somemore. ya right they G are not burdening us the people.
I can’t understand why there are still some moron who believe these kind of hoax… LOL :D
Ya they will raise it in 2018
This is no educated Malaysian spread the fake news. Do we have 1.3cc -2.4cc car engine???
Buy car toys with 1.3cc engine no need pay roadtax!
i hope they will not change their statement to ‘true’ before new year countdown…
sooner or later only. gomen ta da duit. no smoke without fire.
Ek eleh.. nnti mesti naek punya… tengkok gonen sape yg rule… nasi lemak punye… mmng akan naek bila2
Stupid xbersekolah fella failed to figure out the difference between cc and liter
In my opinion yearly road-tax collected is to maintain roads. What if many are using toll-roads especially in the Klang Valley and paying various taxes on vehicle ownership like GST, thus the issue is not the increases but the purpose of the road-tax which is outdated in my view.
usually this people who create hoax just enjoy to see it go viral.
pergh….denied n then btul2 naik…dah biasa sgt jd camnie….

check again bro..1.3 Litre and 1.3CC is not same bro..before calling other people stupid, check first your knowledge..now everyone thinks you are stupid to the max..
yeah, road tax tak naik…..
But come 2017, car insurance will naik…..
Tyre prices naik, petrol naik, engine-oil naik, car spare parts naik, labour/service naik, and many more……
Gaji rakyat surely tak naik….
No mood celebrate new year 2017 ….
There seems to be a lot of fake news circulating using Whatsapp these days. Wonder why some people are so free to write such hoaxes.
I guess Gov won’t increase 2017/18. After that no guarantee. One thing for sure is Insurance premium will be deregulate!!! Meaning pricing from different companies varies. Each has own plan & pricing. They will starts factor in alot to hikes the premium. I foresee the new insurance premium will kill alot car otr and more kereta Hantu…..
Wait… a 600cc is cheaper then 2.4cc how come clearly 600cc is much much more bigger than 2.4cc.
I once believe the official statement from gov but now no more
the write-up may be wrongly written..
but how many times that gomen denies a thing which later on is true anyway
