Dr Wee proposes RM2,600 petrol levy for cars worth RM300,000 and above in T15 group


PETALING JAYA: The government should identify the T15 group and impose a petrol levy of RM2,600 a year when they renew their road tax, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

"The government can impose this levy on cars valued at more than RM300,000. As an example, if the T15 group uses 2,600 litres of petrol a year with a subsidy cost of RM1 per litre, the government can collect RM2,600 as a petrol levy on their licence.

"If they are truly from the T15 group, they will have no issue paying this petrol levy, and we need to have only one single subsidised petrol type at petrol stations. With this, the government can recover the cost of the subsidised petrol from the T15 group," said the Ayer Hitam MP in a Facebook video while speaking in Parliament on Thursday (Oct 24).
