increase in toll fee

Just flip the newspaper; I believe that everyone will notice that the toll fees of 5 main highways are increasing again. Form the contract which is signed by Plus and government, Plus has the right to increase the toll fee every 3 years once. Beside that Plus is increase the toll fee, government has to pay to Plus more than 200 million due to increase the toll fee late for 14 month. In the economic crisis, the increase of toll fee are force the public to pay more. So I think the Plus shouldn’t increase the toll fee now or increase in the lower rate.

The increase of toll fee is a burden to society. Some of them are have to use those main highways in some certain purpose such as sales. Some salesman/saleswoman have to use those main highways to find for them customer or deliver their product. Although some company has subsidize to their workers but it is insufficient. My dad used to spend over RM200 a month just in toll fees when his work place at Petaling Jaya and we are stay in Klang.

So the increase in toll fee, the greater burden to society. The Plus should not increase so much when the economic crisis. Or increase in lower rate which in enough for the company to operate.
