JB car wash outlets feel the toll


Slow day: Car wash outlets are losing many of their regular Singaporean customers as it is now more expensive to drive into the city and back to the republic. — ABDUL RAHMAN EMBONG / The Star

JOHOR BARU: Several car wash outlets in the city have experienced a decline in business following the toll increase on both sides of the Causeway.

On Aug 1, Malaysia introduced a new toll at the JB Custom, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) checkpoint, a move reciprocated by Singapore’s Woodlands Checkpoint on Oct 1.
