Ismail Md. Salleh Deputy Director General (Planning and Development) Malaysian Highway Authority Km. 16, Jalan Serdang – Kajang 43000 Kajang, Selangor, Malaysia En. Khair Ul-Anwar Mohd Yusoff General Manager Rangkaian Segar Sdn Bhd 9th Floor, Menara 1, Faber Towers Jalan Desa Bahagia, Taman Desa Off Jalan Klang Lama 58100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Pn. Zaida Bt. 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.

  • Open LIM Doctoral Dissertation 2009.Pdf
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications BLOGGING AND DEMOCRACY: BLOGS IN MALAYSIAN POLITICAL DISCOURSE A Dissertation in Mass Communications by Ming Kuok Lim © 2009 Ming Kuok Lim Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2009 The dissertation of Ming Kuok Lim was reviewed and approved* by the following: Amit M. Schejter Associate Professor of Mass Communications Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Richard D. Taylor Professor of Mass Communications Jorge R. Schement Distinguished Professor of Mass Communications John Christman Associate Professor of Philosophy, Political Science, and Women’s Studies John S. Nichols Professor of Mass Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This study examines how socio-political blogs contribute to the development of democracy in Malaysia. It suggests that blogs perform three main functions, which help make a democracy more meaningful: blogs as fifth estate, blogs as networks, and blogs as platform for expression. First, blogs function as the fifth estate performing checks-and-balances over the government. This function is expressed by blogs’ role in the dissemination of information, providing alternative perspectives that challenge the dominant frame, and setting of news agenda. The second function of blogs is that they perform as networks. This is linked to the social-networking aspect of the blogosphere both online and offline.
