The Ministry of Domestic Trade and Costs of Living (KPDN) has released a press release stating that the subsidy rationalisation for diesel will finally take place, effective today (10/6/24).
In the press release, the KPDN minister stated that in accordance with the announcement from the Ministry of Finance (MOF), KPDN will implement the new unsubsidised price for the diesel fuel, starting at RM3.35 per litre starting from 12.00 AM of 10 June 2024.
As per the previous announcement from the MOF, the new pricing for diesel will take effect at all petrol stations in Peninsula Malaysia only.
The new pricing will also not affect the previously mentioned 33 vehicle types, as they will still enjoy the rationalised diesel subsidy through the usage of the fleet cards distributed under the Subsidised Diesel Control System (SKDS).
Meanwhile, for public transportation vehicles and logistic vehicles using diesel who have received the approval for SKDS but haven’t received their fleet cards, the press release stated that they should keep their receipts so they can claim the difference back from MOF.
The procedure for the claim will be announced at a later date by the MOF.
