The government is considering imposing a levy on every electric vehicle sold in Malaysia to finance the expansion of public charging stations, after RM3.3 billion in tax incentives failed to spur sufficient private investment in charging infrastructure, says Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Johari Abdul Ghani
Deputy minister Sim Tze Tzin said that policy refinements, grid upgrades and targeted incentives will support Malaysia's goal of installing 30,000 EV charging points nationwide
