KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 27 — The government is taking civil legal action against collection agent Zetrix AI Berhad after the company failed to remit millions in government revenue collected on behalf of the Road Transport Department (JPJ).
Transport Minister Anthony Loke said the legal action followed the company’s failure to settle its total outstanding balance and accrued late-payment penalties within the stipulated deadline.
“Any delay in remitting the funds is categorised as a serious breach of contract terms,” Loke said when winding up his ministry’s Budget 2027 second reading debate.
“The government has also established full settlement of all outstanding balances, including late-transfer penalties, as an absolute prerequisite before granting any approval for extension or further operational consideration,” he added.
