How many litres of RON95 were purchased by MAF and PDRM on day one?

Question

Accepted Answer

Approximately 1.3 Million Litres of RON95 Purchased by MAF and PDRM on Initiative's First Day

On the inaugural day of the Budi Madani RON95 (Budi95) initiative, members of the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) and the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) collectively purchased approximately 1.3 million litres of RON95 petrol. This volume translated into RM2.6 million in transactions by 9 pm on the first day of implementation. The Budi95 scheme offers RON95 petrol at a subsidised rate of RM1.99 per litre.
Significant First-Day Transactions Recorded

The financial outlay for RON95 petrol by the MAF and PDRM on the first day reached RM2.6 million. This figure underscores the immediate uptake of the subsidised fuel by these uniformed groups, who were the initial beneficiaries of the Budi95 programme. The Ministry of Finance reported that the system for MyKad readings at petrol station terminals functioned smoothly, indicating a stable operational start.
Subsidised Fuel Price and Volume

The Budi95 initiative aims to provide RON95 petrol at a price of RM1.99 per litre. The 1.3 million litres purchased on the first day represent a substantial volume of fuel distributed under this subsidised framework to eligible personnel. This reflects the programme's objective to offer financial relief through fuel cost savings.
Phased Rollout of Budi95 Initiative

Following the initial implementation for MAF and PDRM, the Budi95 initiative was slated for expansion. From midnight on the day of the report, the programme was set to extend to over five million recipients of the Rahmah Cash Contribution (STR) from the B40 group. A full rollout, covering an estimated 16 million Malaysians with MyKad and valid driving licences, was scheduled for September 30. The Budi95 portal had already recorded 8.1 million users checking their eligibility for the RON95 subsidy since its launch on September 25.
