Minister of Transport Malaysia Anthony Loke has announced that Malaysians will be able to renew their driver’s licence and road tax via the MyJPJ app starting February 1st.

The initiative will save the public time and costs, ultimately reducing waiting times and workloads off road transport department (JPJ) counters.

To encourage online renewals, those renewing their driver’s licence or road tax via the MyJPJ app will receive an RM5 rebate from the government. The rebate offer will run until the 31st of December 2024.

This comes just under a year since the ministry made digital versions of driver’s licences accessible via the MyJPJ app. Additionally, road tax can also be accessed digitally through the same application.

If you have yet to download the MyJPJ app, you can do so on the Google Play Store, Apple App Store, and on the Huawei App Gallery.

    Acer introduces line of luggage and backpacks in Malaysia


    By Timothy Teoh December 22, 2023

    Alongside its latest Nitro V 15 series, Acer has unveiled an interesting lineup of backpack and luggage that at the time of writing, is already available at Acer concept stores nationwide.

    The first of its lineup is the Predator Robust Luggage, measuring 22 inches with a hard shell and TSA customs password lock. It’s a hardy-looking luggage, with symmetrical cuttings that makes it look something like armour, and the ‘Predator’ logo emblazoned on the lid.

    The Predator Robust Luggage is priced at RM1,999 in Malaysia.

    The next in line is the Acer Melbourne. This luggage is built with a robust three-layer PC shell manufactured in Germany. Like the Predator Robust Luggage, it comes with TSA customs password lock and double-row wheels.

    The Acer Melbourne comes in two variants, a 20-inch version and a 25-inch version.

    The 20-inch Acer Melbourne retails at RM999, while its 24-inch sibling retails at RM1,099.

    Moving away from luggage, Acer has also introduced the Acer Austin Backpack. This sleek backpack is ergonomically designed to reduce shoulder and back strain. It keeps to a minimalist aesthetic free of patterns except for the little Acer logo at the bottom at the front.

    The Acer Austin Backpack retails at RM369.
