KUCHING, April 24 — Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman has voiced concern over the federal government’s move to subsidise RM93 million to implement free toll for four days during Hari Raya Aidilfitri festive season.
According to him, many Sabahan and Sarawakian students in the peninsula could not return back home to celebrate Hari Raya with their families this year due to the cost of flight tickets.“So this issue popped up when the Prime Minister announced a four-day toll subsidy given to all road users. But the fact is almost all, if not all, of those are in Peninsular Malaysia. And the total cost of subsidy is about RM93 million.
Syed Saddiq, who is Malaysian United Democratic Alliance president, was commenting on the federal government’s recent announcement to lifting all toll charges on the country’s highways for four days from April 19-21 and on April 24, as part of efforts to ease the financial burden of millions of Malaysians making their way back to their hometowns for Aidilfitri.
