The reduction was a government initiative to lessen the burden of road users, Najib said in a written answer to Loke Siew Fook (DAP-Rasah) in the DewanRakyat.

Najib, who is also Finance Minister, said that postponement of toll increases for the next five years only involved highways run by PLUS Expressways Berhad, MTD Capital Berhad and New Pantai Expressway Berhad.
