Public transportation discounts should come first. Not toll discounts. Heck, toll should increase to capitalize on the increase traffic.
Super dummmmb… Should give tier-discounts on different days instead of encouraging everyone to squeeze into that 2 days
Dumno and Umngok berpisah tiada. Takkan x biasa
Sendiri dumbo jangan salahkan org lain
You obviously are not the regular balik kampung type yeah, or else you should know those 2 dates are when most would be on the road heading back.
bro youre the type of person that can get everything and anything but still wont be satisfied. tamak haloba
Yeah, now we don’t need to worry about drivers reloading at the rfid toll booth….
Very clever. Total jammed all over highway saturday and sunday. Who’s advice it is actually.
Datuk Ikhwan
Whose advice? who is the menteri or vvip? Dont tell us it is Tengku Zafrul…unlikely.
Ajibkor? Unlikely…facing corruption charges on final appeal,busy with defence .
Ahsiongkor…most likely lor.I think most most likely,someone has to confirm from kementerian yg bertanggung jawab.
If Ahsiongkor made that recommendation, it is a good sign of Keluarga Malaysia helping one another and given consideration to all race and ethnics. No previous nonMalay TM have even contemplate such actions for the benefit of another race and that bodes well for BN Govt moving forward in helping all of Malaysians no matter who you are (except those whom are perpetually negative and criticising, they can wallow in their depression pits for all eternity).
It starts midnite Sat, so those who took off on Friday after work and given it will take about 10-15 hours to reach most of kampung destinations in Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, Tnganu & JB, by the end of the journey it will be toll free for most. So it does benefit the early birds as well as the late cuckoo.
I’m a bit appalled with the comments made, regardless of our politic background, this should be beneficial to everyone who’s travelling this coming raya. I think this is the first and hopefully not the last. Alhamdulillah now we should avoid those long traffics especially at Juru toll and other busy tolls around the country (Gombak toll, Sg Besi etc etc). I am not fan of this government but in my opinion, this effort is very much commendable and deserved a pat on the back. Those lowly income families will be benefited most, especially for those going for long traveled distance.
Right on
That 24hours toll free is going be a sea of cars. Traffic jams all the way.
Really idiotic decision.
Those 2 days are going to be a sea of cars even without toll free as these dates are when most of us will be on the road heading back. Don’t talk as if you balik kampung, otherwise you will appreciate this kind gesture from the gahmen.
D’oh, that’s why some are saying it’s stupid. The idea is the toll free/reduced toll days should be on other days to encourage some others to travel at other times.
Rancak rancak! Berdosaaaaa! Pilihan raya is near! LOL
KWSP 10K withdrawal,Soon tentative facemask less stringent mandate,and free toll…best of the best marketing strategy,brilliant,topnotch to score points..
Use your brains to think what they r trying to achieve.
Adoi! Bagi pun nak komplen. Woi, syukur sikit lah woi! Orang nak balik kampung hepi ko pulak nak berpolitik sini. Pirahhhlahhh!
Takda siapa pun yang komplen. Aku cuma kata je. Memang syukurlah dapat.
Persoalan kepada yang berfikir: sustainable ke? Setiap tahun mampukah menanggung diskaun sehingga RM77 juta? Kalau mampu, kenapa tak buat deal lebih baik yang memberi impak jangka panjang dan bukan populis?
Relek bro. Government knows what they are doing. Takyah pikir masalah negara, unless ko ni PM negara.
Nak deal yang lebih baik yang memberi impak jangka panjang? Adaaaaa tuuuuu!

You are right. Govt coffers already empty yet they still doing charity. Trust me they gonna bite back at the B40 and M40 sooner or later.
Whose at fault for emptying our coffers and raising debt level? PH
Ruslan bahari
Lots of these bossku type of dudes are blind.They cant see these are “score points” efforts to garner votes.
We r not very far from bankrupt sri lanka,if this madness go on.
Copy paste: “I’m a bit appalled with the comments made, regardless of our politic background, this should be beneficial to everyone who’s travelling this coming raya.

I remember when Pakatan was the biggest hope in Malaysia. Oh how mighty have fallen becouse its run by idiots.
the pakatan administration as we knew it was not true pakatan, it was mahathir rebadged
It was either Pakatan+Mahathir or no Pakatan at all, and they chose to bed with the devil just for power. They deserve all the comeuppance for their lust & greed and taking our trust for nothing.
Setuju bro. Terasa nak quote ayat Quran surah Ar-Rahman yg disebut 31 kali tu.. hehe.
Ni jenis tak bersyukur manusia2 nih.
Dont want to get caught in the jam travel on friday or Monday! woohoo…
Dont travel lahhhh! Majority nak balik kampung u pulak nak balik kampung tambah lagi jem buatpe? Duduklah kat rumah bagi org chance balik kampung.
KL Mayor should resign, heavy rainfall sure flooded. Duduk atas apa bikin
PH MPs should resign immediately. Most of KL area under their care but they just win elections and never appear after that.
When will they implement non peak hour discounts?
That is the best way to spread out traffic to reduce congestion and makes our daily lives a whole lot better.
Free tolls! How about free petrol too?
Why? For sinkies to enjoy as well ah?
Very bad execution. Make balik kampung rush worst.
Why toll free is given only on Hari Raya? Why was it not given during CNY? Will it be given during Deepavali too?
CNY not enough poor to benefit from toll free given and Deepavali not enough at all to benefit from it. Better to give parking free of charge at Batu Caves during Thaipusam lagi best.
Toll free but later jam extra 6-10hours.
Petrol spent even more for parking at the highway…
Why not just…
Friday 100%
Saturday 50%
Sunday 100%
Monday 50%
Haa kan.. Agreee
That is pure stupid.. starting on Friday means you expect people to start balik kampung on Thursday? Haha. Sorry but nobody will do that with the long weekend prior to Raya. So your “idea” will only benefit the few and charge 50% to the bulk that are going back compared to PM Ismail better idea of giving 100% toll free to the majority going back.
Orang lain dlm jem tu relax je, yg kau nk kecoh2 dah knp?? Relax sudah arrr… kecoh btl nk jadi menteri traffic pulak skang ni. Dok umah diam2 sudah kalau xnk jem.. semak btl … hahaha… nk puaskn hati semua org, sampai mati pun xkn dpt puaskn bro… relax sudeh…. Wat lex wat peace, hbis cito…
