[QUOTE="535i, post: 384212, member: 83"] Add on to this ... NST [B]Govt scraps plan on vehicle end-of-life policy[/B] 2009/11/06 [B]By Azlan Abu Bakar [/B] KUALA LUMPUR: The government has withdrawn the end-of-life policy for vehicles after taking in account the public’s views and feedback. The International Trade and Industry Ministry, in a statement issued yesterday, said the government had received many complaints from various quarters on the policy which was annnounced on October 28 as part of the National Automotive Policy (NAP). They generally disagree to the mandatory annual comprehensive inspection as a requirement for road tax renewal for vehicles aged 15 years or older. Among the main grouses were the additional cost that the affected owners had to incur for having the car inspected every year before road tax renewal. The phasing out of old vehicles in other countries is normally accompanied by some form of subsidy or incentive to ease the burden of the car owners. [COLOR=red][B]The announcement came two days after Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said that the government was willing to review the new NAP regulations [U]that had a negative impact on the public[/U]. :stupid:[/B][/COLOR] [B][COLOR=#ff0000][/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=black]What were they thinking ? Not enough brain to think about the impact ?[/COLOR][/B] [/QUOTE]
