Abdul Aziz Assistant Director Malaysian Highway Authority Km. 16, Jalan Serdang – Kajang 43000 Kajang, Selangor, Malaysia ABSTRACT The first ETC system was implemented along 22km expressways in 1995 and as of today, the whole stretch of 1,459 km expressways are equipped with a single ETC system allowing for full interoperable. A Service Provider providing electronic payment service operates the system, not just for toll payment but also for payment of parking, public transportation fares. The journey towards achieving ‘single and interoperable ETC’ is started in 1994 and by July 2004, the system were implemented nationwide. During the earlier stage of ETC Development in Malaysia, various system and technology were introduced. The toll highway operators were actively involved in ETC development in Malaysia as they realized the needs to reduce cost of toll collection, capital investment savings, fraud elimination, faster journey time, increased fuel, less congestion and reduce pollution. The first ETC Technology implemented is 2.45GHz microwave in 1994 and another highway operator introduced the same technology in 1997. The system was further enhanced in 2001 to meet the international standard of 5.8GHz.

Under the so called Perak Amanjaya Development Plan, some of the things that we have tried to do are the same things that I believe many others here are concerned about: first, balanced development and economic distribution between the urban and rural areas by focusing on developing small towns; second, poverty eradication regardless of race or religion so that no one remains on the fringes of society or is left behind economically; and, third, youth empowerment. Under the first one, the state identifies viable small- and medium-size companies which can operate from small towns. These companies are to be working closely with the state government to boost the economy of the respective areas.

  • Mukhriz Resigns As Kedah MB.Pdf
    Mukhriz Resigns as Kedah MB Bernama Feb 3, 2016 ALOR SETAR, Feb 3 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Mukhriz Tun Mahathir today announced his resignation as the Kedah menteri besar with immediate effect. At a press conference at Wisma Darul Aman here, Mukhriz said he was informed yesterday that he had lost majority support in the Kedah Legislative Assembly. "I was informed that I had lost majority support in the Kedah Legislative Assembly following a secret ballot by all Barisan Nasional and opposition members of the assembly before the members of the Kedah Council of Regency," he said. Mukhriz also announced that he would resign as the president of the Kedah Football Association because that position came with the post of menteri besar. As for his position as chairman of the Kedah UMNO Liaison Committee, he said he left that to be determined by Prime Minister and UMNO President Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. Mukhriz said he would remain in UMNO to serve the people despite holding no position. He pledged his undivided loyalty to the Sultan of Kedah, the Tunku Temenggong of Kedah, who is the chairman of the Kedah Council of Regency, and members of the Kedah Council of Regency. "I also pledge my continued service to all the people of Kedah Darul Aman," he said. Mukhriz, who was sworn in as the 11th menteri besar of Kedah on May 6, 2013, said he had discharged his responsibilities with honesty and integrity. "I have never tarnished the sovereignty of the Kedah Sultanate and the dignity of the people by any action that did not reflect the qualities of a leader.

  • Malaysia's 13Th General Elections
    Introduction: The Electoral System’s Impact on Outcomes 1 Chapter 1 Introduction: The Electoral System’s Impact on Outcomes Johan Saravanamuttu, Lee Hock Guan and Mohamed Nawab Mohamed Osman PREAMBLE Much has occurred on the political stage even within a year after the 13th general election (GE13) on 5 May 2013. In terms of electoral politics, there have been six by-elections at the time of writing; one resulted from the untimely death of Karpal Singh, the veteran Democratic Action Party (DAP) politician, and another from the death of the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) Menteri Besar of Kedah. The by-elections were held in Kuala Besut (Terengganu state seat) on 24 July 2013; Sungai Limau (Kedah state seat) on 19 October 2013; Kajang (Selangor state seat) on 23 March 2014; Bukit Gelugor (Penang parliamentary seat) on 25 May 2014; Teluk Intan (Perak parliamentary seat) on 31 May 2014; and Pengkalan Kubor (Kelantan state seat) on 25 September 2014. Barisan Nasional (BN) retained the Kuala Besut seat, thus holding on to its thin two-seat majority in the state. This was to prove a little problematic later when the Menteri Besar of Terengganu and another member of the State Assembly announced that they had resigned from the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) in mid-May 2014, although they soon recanted their intention to do so.1 The Kajang by-election was a complex move by the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) to initially provide its leader Anwar Ibrahim with the opportunity to be in the Selangor state government, 1 2 Coalitions in Collision if not even to undertake leadership of the state.
