PETALING JAYA: The Pakatan Harapan government had previously mocked Barisan Nasional (BN)'s promise to abolish motorcycle toll collection for the Penang Bridge but is now doing the same thing, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong (pic). "Just before GE14 elections, (Finance Minister Lim) Guan Eng mocked BN's promise of abolishing motorcycles' toll on the Penang Bridge. "He said if Pakatan Harapan wins, tolls for Penang Bridge will be abolished immediately for all vehicles and not just motorcycles alone. Dr Wee also said the motorcycle tolls for the routes may not be permanently abolished as was announced. "Instead, the Pakatan Harapan government may be paying RM20mil compensation to the toll concessions every year, so that motorcycles do not have to pay toll.
