Night market trader Mohd Hassan Abdullah, 43, whose van’s road tax comes up to about RM300 yearly, said the extension amounted to financial assistance. “However, with the movement control order, frequent closures and drop in business, renewing the road tax is now a burden for me. I was contemplating whether to renew my car’s road tax and fortunately, the government announced the extension, so I can now drive with ease of mind. “Taxi drivers pay only RM2 for a year’s road tax. “Although our road tax is cheap, the expensive insurance still needs to be renewed every year, ” he said.
