Transport expert Rosli Khan says government funds will be put to better use by improvements to the public transportation system.
Transport analyst Rosli Khan says subsidising EVs will only exacerbate traffic congestion, which is a key transport issue that needs to be resolved.
He was commenting after Tengku Zafrul announced the government’s commitment to ensuring that individuals across all income groups are able to own EVs through targeted subsidies and financial assistance. “Such initiatives will position Malaysia at the forefront of green transport solutions, heralding a new age of green energy, sustainable development and environmental consciousness,” he said.
Ferlito said innovations that rely heavily on government support for market acceptance may not be economically sound.
