In a press conference on Thursday (Oct 3), Malaysia's Transport Minister Anthony Loke gave updates on the Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP) requirements for foreign vehicles. He said Malaysia aims to open more VEP centres - including at Johor Bahru malls - to facilitate the installation of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags.

On enforcement, he added that 50 warnings have been issued to drivers leaving Malaysia for Singapore since Oct 1. He also clarified that only drivers who have not registered for VEP will be issued warning notices at the border. More details: https://cna.asia/3TVEfDj
