25% TAX RETURNS TO JOHOR

I have just been informed about the delay in the opening of the Pasir Gudang Hospital, which was supposed to open in phases starting August 2025, and I am disappointed that it has been postponed to January 2026.

Following recent shortcomings such as the issue of autogate system disruptions at the Sultan Iskandar Building (BSI) and the Sultan Abu Bakar Complex (KSAB), as well as matters related to hospitals, flood mitigation projects and others, I wish to convey to Johoreans how important it is for 25 per cent of the state’s income tax revenue to be returned to Johor.

Through this tax return, we would not need to burden the Federal Government or submit applications to the Federal Government and then endure a long wait for approval.

When 25 per cent of Johor’s income tax revenue is returned to Johor, Johor can stand on its own feet.

His Royal Highness Tunku Ismail, The Regent of Johor
