The Malaysian Highway Authority (Lembaga Lebuhraya Malaysia, or LLM) has confirmed that it is working to stabilize the TuJu navigation application following widespread reports of technical failures. The app, designed as a local alternative to global navigation tools, struggled to maintain service after a sudden influx of users overwhelmed its systems.

The technical difficulties were directly linked to a recent public statement by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, who urged the Malaysian public to shift away from Waze and adopt the locally developed TuJu platform. In response to the service outages, the LLM issued a formal apology on Thursday, stating that they are collaborating with the application’s developer, Prosignal Consortium, to resolve the performance issues and restore functionality for commuters.

While the government has framed the promotion of TuJu as a move to support domestic technology, the immediate technical collapse has raised questions regarding the app's readiness for mass adoption. The LLM has not provided a specific timeline for when the application will be fully operational, but they have acknowledged that the surge in demand exceeded the current capacity of the platform's infrastructure.
