最近大家都很愤怒起价的事情。不过我觉得其实也许对更多人是公平的,因为其实如果不起的话,政府也是需要赔钱,那么对没有使用公路的公民是比较不好的,不过其实明年的南北大道如果起的话,影响人数会更多吧。 相信很多的货物也可能会因此而期价,人民更辛苦了。
Hike after a long stagnation.
The toll rate hike comes after a long stagnation as there have been no increases in the
past 7 years. Last year, it was reported that the Government paid RM 559m in com pensation to toll concessionaries as a result of the actual toll rates being lower than the stipulated rates in their respective concession agreements
Transferring the burden but minimal impact on concessionaires.
The toll rate hike is expected to have minimal earnings impact for most concessionaires. This is because most concessionaires were already receiving their stipulated rat es as per their CA vi a compensation from the Government (i.e. the difference bet ween the CA rate and the lower actual rate was subsidised). In essence, the hike merely transfers the burden of the toll which was previously shared between motorists and the Government solely to the motorist. Cash flows of concessionaries will nonetheless be eased as they no l onger have to wait for compensation to be paid
