The Budi Madani RON95 Initiative Has Facilitated the Sale of 21.8 Million Litres of Fuel

As of 7pm yesterday, the Budi Madani RON95 (Budi95) initiative has facilitated the sale of 21.8 million litres of RON95 petrol, amounting to RM43.7 million. This information was confirmed by Tunku Nashrul Abaidah, the senior press secretary to the prime minister. The program, designed to offer subsidised fuel, began on September 27 for armed forces and police personnel, subsequently extending to Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) recipients on September 28. Its reach was further broadened to include 16 million eligible Malaysians from midnight on September 30.
Programme Commencement and Expansion

The Budi Madani initiative initially commenced on September 27, specifically for 300,000 members of the armed forces and police. This was followed by an expansion on September 28 to encompass five million recipients of the Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) cash aid. A significant further expansion occurred at midnight on September 30, broadening eligibility to encompass a total of 16 million Malaysians deemed eligible for the subsidy.
Subsidised Pricing and Savings

Under the Budi Madani scheme, eligible recipients are able to purchase RON95 petrol at a significantly reduced price of RM1.99 per litre. This contrasts with the unsubsidised retail price of RM2.60 per litre that was in effect for October. The subsidy translates into a saving of 61 sen for every litre of RON95 purchased.
Individual Subsidy Cap and Potential Savings

Individuals who qualify for the Budi Madani subsidy have an eligibility cap of 300 litres per month. This cap allows for potential monthly savings of up to RM183 for eligible recipients, based on the per-litre subsidy provided. This substantial saving is a key benefit of the programme for its targeted beneficiaries.
