  "summary": "The road transport department (JPJ) in Malaysia has announced that it will continue its enforcement on luxury vehicles under the Op Luxury initiative, following the successful seizure of 3,790 luxury vehicles worth approximately RM550 million since June 2025. According to Kifli Ma Hassan, JPJ senior director of enforcement, Negeri Sembilan recorded the highest number of seizures with 469 vehicles, followed by Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Johor, and Penang. JPJ revealed that some luxury vehicle owners were reluctant to renew their road tax due to blacklisting for previous offences, while lower-income groups could renew their road tax without issues. The department also found that around 20% of luxury vehicle owners were cosmetic entrepreneurs, influencers, and businesspeople. JPJ aims to ensure all road users comply with the law, emphasizing that the responsibility of maintaining valid vehicle and driving documents lies with owners and drivers.",
