No permission was given to build the gantry,” the source was quoted as saying.

Additionally, the report quoted a government official who wished to remain anonymous saying that the operator had not proposed the introduction of a one-way toll charge for those driving up to Genting Highlands. “If there is such a plan, it should be brought to the attention of the Pahang government including the state government's investment and privatisation department before it is discussed at the state executive council meeting,” he was quoted as saying.Yesterday, the Pahang state government reportedly denied having ever discussed plans to introduce a one-way toll charge for visitors to Genting Highlands.that had never arisen or been discussed during the state exco meetings.
