How the government 'belanja the rakyat' and spent RM500 million to keep tolls down
Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi revealed what most road users don’t realise - if the government hadn’t intervened, toll rates would already be much higher this year.
By instructing toll concessionaires to freeze toll hikes in 2025, the government is paying over RM500 million in compensation to these companies.
Why? Because highway development and operations are bound by detailed agreements that allow for scheduled toll reviews, usually upward to help concessionaires repay private loans taken to build and maintain the highways.
Good news, you save this year. Heads up - come January 2026, a toll increase might still happen!

Taman Sri Muda floods hit again—every year, same story. Govt brags about billions in reserves, but where’s the action for rakyat?… Selangor kaya like PKR cytros claimed, yet we’re left to drown. Is this what they want? #FixTheFloods#RakyatFirst
Ini hanya sekadar luahan peribadi saya sebagai rakyat marhaen. Apa pulak perasaan korang bila diumum bubar parlimen tadi?

Serious ke parlimen nak bubar this week? Honestly, I really didnt agree.
Tak boleh ke pimpinan semasa sekarang fokus dulu persediaan nak banjir besar berbanding sibuk nak PRU15 ? 😭
Kenapa umno batak sangat nak pru ni? Tolong utamakan rakyat dulu boleh tak? 🤧

Benar. Nak masuk PH, kena lah tolong jentera PH. Bukan minta jentera PH tolong MUDA. Be politely mannered and mature in politic. Don't be like those coward elderly in UMNO/PAS/Bersatu... #RakyatFirst
Saya tuntut MUDA membuat tindakan seperti yang berikut:
1. Isytihar sokongan dengan menyertai PH.
2. Masuk PRN Johor guna bendera PKR / PH
3. @SyedSaddiq harus kerahkan ahli MUDA bantu jentera PKR / PH
4. Sokong calon MB dari PH
Terima kasih
It’s Rakyat victory. Long live democracy.
Congratulations to Rakyat of Malacca. Reject the lies/骗/tipu, the frog, the selfish personal first, the fake news.
