Transport ministry announces GOLD special plate series in conjunction with 50th Federal Territories Day

The ministry of transport has announced a special vehicle registration plate series, this being a GOLD series to commemorate the golden jubilee celebration of the 50th Federal Territories Day. The availability of the plate series was announced by transport minister Anthony Loke earlier today.

The special series, which runs from 1 to 9,999, will be available for online bidding through the JPJeBid system from 12am on February 1 until 10pm on February 5, with the bidding results set to be announced on February 6. The bidding method for the series will follow the existing terms and conditions that have been set through the JPJeBid system.

A minimum bidding price has been set for categories in the series. The minimum bid for running numbers is RM300, while that for popular numbers is RM800. As for ‘attractive’ numbers, RM3,000 is the starting price for one. Meanwhile, bids for golden GOLD (double the happiness, double the joy, no doubt) numbers start from RM20,000, but you can bet that quite a few of these will end up being worth their weight in gold.

As it is with standard plates, any registration number in the GOLD series that is successfully bid must be registered on a vehicle within 12 months from the date the official bid decision letter is issued.

So, which one will end up costing more, GOLD 888 or GOLD 999, you think? For details on how to make an online bid on the JPJeBid system, read our feature story on it.

    Malaysia should apply for guinness record as the first country to make tons of money out of number plate which has not limitation to how much they can milk out of the rakyat…the number doesn’t even need to follow the conventional 3 alphabet you see. Gold la. diamond la. when business is good, platinum also can. just need to revise the fond size regulation to accomodate it. Bravo!!! Malaysia betul betul BOLEH!!!

      high class, legalize scammer!. good job minister. once in a while do it for the people. jalan masih berlubang, accidents keep going up. jams everywhere. traffic lights are not monitored. in this age, traffic lights should be able to determine how long each stop. not stopping there, but there is no vehicles on other directions.

      bo law – in hokkien means no law
      bo no – in hokkien means no brains

      once upon a time car number plates were there to catalogue the cars registered. they appear by state, year and series. at a quick glance we can tell where the car was registered in and when.

      fast forward to today where bo law and bo no reign supreme. Pray to God that a crime does not happen where you hv to somehow memorise the number plate of the perpetrator’s vehicle.. it is almost impossible now to know what is real and what is fake plates.. all variations go and all fonts and sizes go. So anyone can create a fake plate , drive around and no one is the wiser.

      All about vanity and money at the expense of logic and safety

      Bila gov agency tak reti buat duit dikatanya malas, rasuah banyak, tak reti buat kerja. Bila gov agency kreatif buat duit, dikatanya benak. Tu salah, yang ni salah. Komplen je manjang. Sah sah target customer ni yang berduit. Bukan target kat b40.

        Eh hazri bodoh. Kalau dah berkhidmat dalam Jabatan kerajaan tu kiranya dah pegang amanah nak serve rakyat dan bantu kerajaan persekutuan untuk mentadbir negara. Celah mana jual no plat dan benda2 bodoh macam ni kreatif pundek? Negara luar pun GASP tengok Malaysia boleh benda macam ni. Memalukan dan merosakkan reputasi negara. Sekarang JPJ tak ada perbezaan langsung dibawah naungan PN dengan kerajaan perpaduan sekarang. Tetap BODOH dan jilat rasuah

  • If there is demand, there is supply. Just another option for the people, JPJ didn’t force anyone to bid right? I’m sure number 1 to 9999 will be taken with much higher bid amount than the asking price

    Come on Anthony, more useless number plate series? Crony pockets still not thick enough?

    Its been too long already – please introduce standardised number plates! All our neighbouring countries have them.
