High costs hinder motorhome popularization in Malaysia despite new rental policy

Malaysia now allows motorhomes to be registered for commercial self-drive rental. However, a 15-year age limit, high purchase and inspection costs, and unclear insurance details are expected to raise daily rental rates from 600 to 1000 Malaysian ringgit. The development of campground infrastructure and a service network is also seen as a multi-year challenge.
