MY100 is a joke. Paying more money for travel pass won't increase the frequency of our buses. This has been proven true. In 2022, MY50 replaced MY30. Bus frequency worsened from 30 mins to 60 mins. Stop falling for capitalist rhetorics. It's time for more aggressive approach.

With global oil prices rising amid the current Middle East crisis, the government is spending significantly more just to maintain that subsidised price. In February alone, the subsidy bill was about RM700 million. It jumped to around RM3 billion in March, and is expected to exceed RM4 billion in April. At the same time, the BUDI95 (RM1.99/L) quota has been reduced from 300L to 200L per month, while the unsubsidised RON95 price is now RM3.87/L. The govt is currently subsidising RM1.88 for every litre of RON95 petrol. Assuming each Malaysian uses an average of 100L per month, that's equivalent to RM188/month in subsidies per person. If 1 million Malaysians switch from petrol to EV, that's RM188 million saved every single month based on the current RON95 prices. In one year, that's RM2.3 billion saved. 𝐄𝐕 𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 EV adoption isn’t just about going green. It’s about reducing exposure to volatile global oil prices, lowering the long-term subsidy burden and enabling energy independence through renewable source including solar, hydropower and battery energy storage systems. Instead of subsidising petrol, Malaysia could be investing in local energy generation. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡? Malaysia initially set a target of 10,000 EV charge points by the end of 2025. As of November 2025, we only achieved 5,360 charge points according to ST's data. Who is accountable for not meeting the target? What exactly is holding things back? Approvals, grid limitations, or commercial viability? Why is it difficult to deploy large scale chargers on highways? Where are the stronger incentives or mandates to accelerate EV charger deployment? Fuel subsidies are rising but public EV infrastructure is lagging behind. Malaysia needs to invest forward in enabling large scale charging hubs along strategic interstate routes ahead of demand, introduce policies such as the Right to Charge and ensuring all highways are EV friendly. We can either keep subsidising heavily on petrol, or start investing in energy independence. @PetraJayaMP @AlexNantaLinggi @joghanicomms @anthonyloke

📍🟡 Housing developers should consider reducing the number of parking spaces in new projects near public transport stations, Transport Minister Anthony Loke said last December. 📌 Loke said that this would apply only to new developments and primarily target young residents living near urban rail networks. 📌 “If they live near public transport stations, the necessity of owning a car may be reduced. This can also help lower their living expenses." 📌 He also noted that several transit-oriented developments in KL have already been allowed to apply for relaxation of parking requirements from local authorities. 🧵 1/9
