Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook today announced that the online payment system for Motor Vehicle Licence (LKM) and Malaysian Driving Licence (LMM) will be launched “in a few months”. Currently, the system is still in the testing phase to ensure a smooth launch.
As reported by Bernama, Loke said that the online payment system has completed the Proof of Concept (POC) implementation but it is still under testing. The system will be available through the MyJPJ application system when launched in the coming months.
Loke stressed that the tests are important to ensure that the system won’t crash due to high traffic. In relation to that, the Transport Minister also commented that the launch of the digital display modes of LKM and LMM last February helped reduce congestion at Road Transport Department (JPJ) counters.
However, he said that vehicle owners can still apply for a physical copy of their licence and road tax, especially if they intend to drive overseas as the digital licence is only valid in our country.
