The Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) will deploy 50 EV charging stations next year. This was revealed through the tabling of Budget 2027 earlier today.
To be clear, LLM’s plan was not explicitly mentioned by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in Parliament. Instead, it can be found in the speech text published on the official Budget 2027 website.
LLM’s 2027 EV charger target was also mentioned by Works Minister Alexander Nanta Linggi during a press conference after the tabling of Budget 2027.
PM Anwar’s Budget 2027 speech at Parliament only included the blue part. Given that there are 52 weeks in a year, and taking long holidays such as Chinese New Year and Hari Raya into consideration, we are looking at an average deployment of 1 charging station per week.
