Malaysians can enjoy the toll exemption everywhere except at these 2 places,

  • Plaza Tol Bangunan Sultan Iskandar (BSI), the connecting toll to Singapore.
  • Plaza Tol Tanjung Kupang, Johor.

“This initiative is launched to celebrate all Malaysians, especially the Indians who will be celebrating Deepavali this weekend,” Alexander said, according to Berita Harian. 

We’re sure Malaysians are thrilled about this news, and we truly appreciate the efforts to make this happen. As we’re headed into a long weekend, be sure to plan your journey and drive safely!
