Zetrix AI has lodged a formal proposal aimed at resolving a RM314 million payment backlog with the Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ), addressing a significant accumulation of arrears that has drawn ministerial attention.
Transport Minister Loke Siew Fook previously highlighted the issue, noting that fees and summonses collected since May had not been remitted to the department. The outstanding amount underscores challenges in the collection and remittance process for traffic-related revenues.
The submission by Zetrix AI represents an attempt to tackle the arrears through a structured resolution framework. Details of the proposal's specific mechanisms and timeline for settlement remain under review by relevant authorities.
The JPJ arrears issue has become a matter of concern for the transport ministry, with officials tasked with evaluating proposed solutions to restore the flow of collected revenues to the department. The outcome of Zetrix AI's proposal is expected to influence the department's approach to managing outstanding balances moving forward.
