Malaysia's targeted RON95 fuel subsidy keeps petrol at RM1.99 a litre for eligible citizens. Here is how BUDI95 works, who qualifies, and the monthly quota.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has defended the government's decision to cap monthly BUDI95 subsidised fuel at 200 litres, stating this allowance adequately serves most Malaysian drivers whose average consumption stands at roughly 100 litres per month.

Malaysia's government will maintain all people-focused subsidies and cash assistance programmes despite bearing nearly RM40 billion in petroleum product subsidies this year, Deputy Finance Minister Liew Chin Tong confirmed.
