Road Tax Reduction & Toll Raise in Malaysia.

Road Tax Reduction
Some Malaysians are very happy with the Road Tax Reduction ...
Let us, take a look at the simple calculations below...

E.g.
Road Tax Reduction = RM50 for 1 year
For per day = RM50/365
= RM0.1370/day (WAU!!!!!! What a big savings for Malaysians)

Syabas !!! To our Government !!!

Toll Raise
Examin ing a situation where a person uses the Kesas Highway from Klang To K.L.
(To & Fro, which means - using a full package on this Highway)

Old Toll Rate = RM1.50 per toll x 6 tolls = RM9.00 per day
New Toll Rate = RM2.20 per toll x 6 tolls = RM13.20 per day
Difference = RM0.70 per toll
For 1 day = RM0.70 x 6 tolls (To & Fro)
= RM4.20 / day

Normal Working Days for Normal Person = 240days / year
For One Year = 240days x RM4.20
= RM1008.00 (Difference bte Old &New Rates)
Full Calculation = RM13.20/day x 240 days
= RM3,168 per year

But Some Crazy Guys Work for 365 days / year
For One Year = 365days x RM4.20
= RM1533.00 (Different - Old & Present)
Full Calculation = RM13.20 /day x 365 days
= RM4,818 per year
For other toll places you can calculate yourself ... using the same method.

If an average Malaysian Salary is RM2000.00/mth. (For easy calculation purpose)
It means he/she will be spending his/her 2 month salary/ year just to pay on his toll.

Syabas again !!! To all Malaysians.... For Being Blind
