The government will strive to maintain fuel prices under the Budi Madani RON95 (Budi95) petrol subsidy programme, set at RM1.99 per litre, to ease the public’s burden amid the impact of the ongoing West Asia conflict.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim acknowledged that the government is facing financial pressure in sustaining the Budi95 price but stressed that it is important to continue the programme to reduce the people’s burden.
