LABUAN: The Finance Ministry (MOF) is still undecided over the proposed Customs’ new ruling on the outflow of Labuan- and Langkawi-registered vehicles to the mainland.

Deputy Finance Minister 1, Datuk Othman Aziz, said his ministry would bring up the various grouses from the concerned parties to the meeting of the newly-established special task force.

The task force was announced by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi last month, who is also the chairman, to tackle the various development issues plaguing the island and the people.

“The new ruling had been thoroughly discussed. But it is important to look at the reality of the current economic situation here.

“I will bring up the issue and brief the chairman of the task force before any decision on the new ruling is made,” he told Bernama in Labuan on Monday.

Othman was on a one-day working day visit to the Labuan Royal Customs Department and Labuan Financial Services Authority to attend the briefing on the performances of the two agencies.
