This is because more vehicles are expected to enter Johor from Singapore, Malaysia's Transport Minister Anthony Loke said in a Parliament session on Oct 22, according to a report in the New Straits Times.

The RM100 million figure would surpass the RM91,037,040 collected in road charges in 2023.

A total of 4,397,229 vehicles from Singapore crossed the border to enter Malaysia from January to September, with RM87,944,580 in road charges collected, Mr Loke said in response to a parliamentary question about the number of Singapore-registered vehicles entering Malaysia and the road charges collected till September.
