MALACCA: The local authorities in Malacca, particularly Hang Tuah Jaya Municipal Council (MPHTJ), have been using the e-cash system since the end of last year, to facilitate the transfer of funds for various tax-related payments.

State Housing, Local Government, Environment and Green Technology Committee chairman Datuk Tey Kok Kiew said the initiative was in line with technological change, as e-cash payment methods have been widely used for various transactions locally and abroad.
