The recent ‘RR’ number plate series has unseated ‘RM’ as the most lucrative for JPJ Perlis. ‘RR’ – which is overflowing with sporty connotations and will look good on superbikes and luxury cars – netted the state’s Road Transport Department RM7.2 million, RM100k more than the RM7.1 million collected by the ‘RM’ money plate.
This was revealed by JPJ Perlis spokesman Mohd Tarmizi Ghazali to various media outlets, which reported that the department received 7,960 bids for registration numbers. The bids for top ‘RR’ numbers comfortably topped the previous Perlis record bid for a number plate – RM297,000 for ‘RM8’ in 2015.
Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Muhammad V is the successful bidder for ‘RR6’ and ‘RR9’, which cost the monarch RM459,000 dan RM396,800 respectively. Selangor’s Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah bagged ‘RR11’ for RM268,400. Check out the eye-watering sums coughed up for the top ‘RR’ plates below. But where’s ‘RR1’?
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
as a malay i think there SHOULD be one king and queen not many kings and queen!
Government makes so much of money from all these auctions. But yet, our hospitals are complaining that they have had funding cut so badly, they cannot even supply medicines etc.
Universities and schools are having the same problem. No money to do research and no money to buy books even.
So where is all this money going to?
No money to do research? Pls Google UMAR.
No skool books? Wait, din news report student bags too big cuz TOO MANY books?
So where is all this money going to? Its all above. In skools & books.
Make a few million from number plates but hundreds of cars sold in Malaysia no need to pay tax.
It is big money cause these cars, each of them give LHDN millions. One Rolls Royce alone tax on it is about RM3 million.
Incoming “RCI” plate will be much much much more. Worth at least RM200 Billion.
Sell fancy plate number. Meanwhile roadtax printer after 1month still “Printer masih Rosak”.
Championn…LOL
As a Msian, u probably failed all ur years learning Sejarah.
As a Muslim I feel this is not humility. We are thought to be humble. This looks to me like showing off. Better to give the money to rumah anak yatim. At least it helps homeless children
Well, thats because during the meeting of Merdeka. The negeri2 Melayu only agreed to join as Malaysia with each retain their own ruler. Unless Malays can wake up from the fuedal mindset, you ppl will be ruled by many more kings and queens. Thus, there wont be any democracy or fairness in living your own lives.
Dont be fooled by people buying RR plate and gomen getting revenue. These people buy the Rolls Royce or any car got no tax. Gomen loses billions.
Those buying RR plate earn JPJ and gomen RM7.2 million but still gomen loses billions as the Rolls Royce or the Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo, Pagani and McLaren is sold for tax free.
RM7.2 mil vs RM BILLIONS
The fool is you. RR, perlis plate where can register in langkawi or labuan, how to avoid tax? The sultans only have limit of 10 tax free cars, and that one don’t use plate no., either wearing crown emblem or their title, maybe only one state that not follow quota and rules, and everyone know which state it is. But if they put plate no to their car for sure need to pay taxes.
Stop being a stupid hipster… There is only one King and many state Sultans.
so from which state the only king will be?

mehh…
Where is RR1??? On the side note. Economy doing very well.. people still buying nombo mahal that cost more than myvi.
If you have cash buy plate no is better investment than property.
i repeat again… the rich gets richer, the poor gets poorer
Tax the rich no problemo
It’ll work for the hardworking and handicap poors but the lazy poors will stay poor bcos they will get even lazier and blame the world for all their suffering.
And deswai those who r poor and lazy come here complain gov is unfair, despite all the opportunities given.
RR1 reserved for Raja Perlis. No, I don’t know why either.
Now is LHDN audit time….expect all the orang biasa and companies being visited by the tax guys soon.
This means RM(ringgit) is not worth money now…
On the contrary, reselling it still worth 7.1mil.
Its just a plate number bro, nothing related to ringgit. Apalah!
Look out for RR 775……
It’s all over the news already what. The raja of Perlis got the rr1.
Wheres RR1? Probably down south stuck inside a climate controlled auto hangar.
Read in FB comments, RR1 is reserved for the Raja Perlis.
Not a big deal anyway
Dah berjangkit…
IRB shd have fun checking on those who pay so much cash…
IRB shd have fun checking on those who pay so much cash.
wow…more than 7.1 mil…
soo now the question is…where all the money goes after all of this years???????????what is see here..malaysia have sufficient income for all of this “benda”…but still showing we are poorest of all conntry…sad
Since the poorest can afford all of this ‘benda’ that means we sudah berjaya.
I wonder of “RPR” will make much?
Just wait until RS plate…. lagi pecah record !

Setup more AES cameras.
Does anyone know what JPJ does with the money?
Setup more AES cameras.
Buy more AES cameras so they can make more money
Saman them lawbreakers? Yes, pls very much.
At least it is a Legit way of earning $$$ from people who is “willing” to part with their Cash.
Regarding the number RR1, I believe its reserved for a new buyer of a Rolls Royce that befit the number plate.
I guess DYMM Sultan Ibrahim (Sultan Johor) owned the RR1 plate.
Not, its Sultan of Perlis. Sultan from different state cannot request allocation for other states no. If want need to open tender like everyone else. They can reserve their state no but got quota once in few years or series.
No Sultan in Perlis. Its Raja Perlis!!!
Malaysia is the place where you can get the most expensive plastic in the whole universe
