Diesel Subsidy Rationalization: What Changed?
On June 10, 2024, the Malaysian government implemented diesel subsidy restructuring in Peninsular Malaysia. The price increased from RM2.15 to RM3.35 per liter - a 55% jump that immediately impacted logistics operatorsโ operating costs.
The first week after rationalization showed a 30% reduction in total diesel sold, demonstrating the policyโs effectiveness in curbing smuggling and unauthorized use. However, legitimate logistics businesses faced higher operating expenses.
