Malaysia will complete registration procedures for ride-hailing drivers seeking expanded fuel subsidies under the Budi95 program by week's end. Finance Ministry officials coordinate with transportation companies to verify driver qualifications while studying subsidy extensions for maritime vessel operators in eastern states. The government collects boat ownership records through state agencies to distribute benefits equitably across transportation sectors.
Nearly 912,000 military personnel and cash assistance recipients purchased 21.8 million liters of discounted gasoline worth 43.7 million ringgit through September 29. Qualified consumers pay 1.99 ringgit per liter instead of October's unsubsidized 2.60 ringgit rate. The 61-sen reduction provides monthly savings reaching 183 ringgit under the 300-liter purchase ceiling. Prime Ministerial spokesman Tunku Nashrul Abaidah said authorities will refine policies protecting citizens from financial pressures while maintaining access to fuel.
