KLUANG: The implementation of the Vehicle Entry Permit (VEP), which was suppose to start next month, has been postponed to resolve issues related to vehicle entry requirements at both the Singapore and Thai border. Transport Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said that matters pertaining to regulations that will be imposed on foreign-registered vehicles under the VEP needed to be ironed out before it could take effect. "Currently, Malaysia is only imposing a RM20 (S$6.61) Road Charge (RC) on foreign-registered vehicles from Singapore, entering through the southern land entry points. "We still need more time to standardise regulations that are related to the entry of foreign vehicles entering the country from Singapore and Thailand before the VEP can be implemented.
