Datuk Seri Anwar on Oct 18 said that the government will remove fuel subsidies for RON 95, a heavily subsidised petrol, by the middle of 2025.
*
Lets assume the price of Ron 95 are at rm2.76, my car will need additional rm34 per full tank (rm100 full tank now). Based on last time, its not the fuel price that just taking hit to us, its the others dominos effect, everything will price up. Foresee nasi lemak basic at roadside will sell at rm7-8 later.

If nearboring border maybe yes, but overall country still cheaper than us.

Because they are agriculture country or agriculture as main economy driver. So that end up the food in particular cheaper by a lot vs us who I believe need to do some import. Especially the basic as flour, rice, sugar.

Put more newer tax, cut some area subsidy for the sake of not implementing the GST. Scared for backlash from big player behind PH?

The money goes to the IC that was used, not the rich man/petrol filler. Husband pump petrol, his own 150L finish he enter his wife's IC#, money goes to the wife.

If you entered my IC to pump petrol, money comes to me, using my quota from the 150L allocation. I wouldn't give you anything. The subsidy is like RM1~2/L, 150L only nets RM300.. what is there to give you back lah lol.

If gomen is bijak, they can utilize the TNG apps as last time they give ewallet cash via here.

Aiya, why Govt talked so long about subsidy removal and no update on how is it done ?

The earlier they got rid of the drug for rakyat, the faster we will see EV transition.

Madani in a nutshell. some ministers want drastic action plans etc, but when come to PMX, need to factors for B40, so hold again and again. See why Sarawak diesel still continue subsidy but remove for peninsular. different country? no ball to make drastic but good action in a long run?

Those who need to pay full is the one who can afford to absorb the price hike. and what citizen concern is goods and services price hike. but, diesel subsidy removal not really affected inflation. just enter new year, food of price increase. but not related to diesel. but related to other things. chain effect.

If I become government, I will fast fast remove ron95 subsidy. even without removal, price of goods still increase. so, why need to wait.

I vouched for subsidy removal be it diesel as well as petrol. Too many foreigner taking an advantage here especially at the boarder, in Perlis more obvious Thailand registered car filled up our 95 like nobody cares. But, if Gomen got ball, make it to all, not Peninsular only, include also Sabah and Sarawak, what are the objective discard them from subsidy cut off?

Another is the related to Medical, at KKM and Public Hospital. RM1 treatment is sure hurts the gomen wallet cz nobody is checking the patient weather they are b40 nor t20, both pay rm1. Why not make it rm50 as minimum except to those needed and purely b40? The extra fund from this, or saving from the subsidy by this, transfer it to KKM or MOH, they can use it to hire more doctors, or give annual appreciation bonus for example.

Pity to see the gomen Doctors need to works extra miles and full swing especially see the no of patients at any public hospitals are max daily

Rural area of Sabah Sarawak has to rely on diesel generator for their electricity supply on night time (some even for whole day), if u raise the diesel price then it will affect them very badly.

Then there still a potential of diesel/ petrol transfer out of the country again and again where the taxpayers paying indirectly for that.
