To celebrate its 79th anniversary, the Land Transport Department will launch a special 'A_A' series of license plate numbers and open online bidding for interested parties from April 19 to 23.
The Transport Minister, Loke Siew Fook, announced last Saturday at the 79th Land Transport Department celebration held in Ipoh, Perak, that the online bidding deadline for the 'A_A' special plate number series is 10 PM on April 23.
He mentioned that 'JPJeBid' has become quite popular, and based on public feedback, there are technical issues when trying to access 'JPJeBid' during the last 10 minutes of bidding for special numbers.
He noted that the department has now introduced a new 'JPJeBid' mobile application, in addition to the website, as another channel for the public to bid for license plate numbers.
Attendees of the event included the Director General of the Land Transport Department, Datuk Aishah Fadhilah, the Ministry of Transport Secretary General, Datuk Zainal Sandy, and Deputy Minister, Datuk Hasbi.
According to a statement released by the department, the specially launched 'A_A' series of special plate numbers holds symbolic significance, where the letter A at the beginning and end represents the symbol of JPJ, and the bidding results will be announced on April 24.
