KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 23 — Bagan MP Lim Guan Eng today called on the federal government to disclose how much the TuJu road navigation app cost, whether it was awarded through an open tender, and who approved it.

The DAP lawmaker said the app’s failure had become a national embarrassment after Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim barred civil servants from using Waze and pointed them to TuJu instead, over sovereignty concerns and the security risk of possible interference by the Israeli government.

TuJu is owned by the Malaysian Highway Authority (LLM) and was developed by Prosignal Consortium Sdn Bhd (PCSB).

Lim said the app was launched on November 26, 2025, as a locally developed highway navigation tool, and has been in continuous development for four years since 2022.
