Kuala lumpur: The proactive initiative by the Negeri Sembilan Ministry of Domestic Trade (KPDN) to conduct a briefing on the Subsidised Petrol Control System (SKPS) today received a positive response, attracting some 120 representatives from various companies and individuals. Its director, Muhammad Zahir Mazlan, said the initiative aims to encourage more companies in land public transport and goods transport companies to register and take advantage of the Budi MADANI RON95 petrol subsidy (BUDI95).
According to BERNAMA News Agency, the briefing engaged strategic partners, including representatives from petrol companies, target groups, taxi associations, individuals, and business entities, to provide accurate and comprehensive explanations about the implementation of SKPS to all parties. This effort is aimed at preventing misinformation and confusion among the public, ensuring that the government’s targeted RON95 implementation agenda reaches the people with accurate information, not through rumours or social media.
A food supply company manager, Kelvin, 30, highlighted that the targeted RON95 subsidy is beneficial for operators like himself, as it reduces operational costs through fuel savings. He noted that with the subsidised price of RM2.05 per litre compared to RM2.60 in the market, the difference directly impacts operating costs. Kelvin emphasized the importance of registration to be eligible for the subsidised rate.
Taxi driver R. Lechumanan, 72, attended the briefing to gain a better understanding of the implementation of SKPS. He expressed his satisfaction after the briefing, saying it helped him finally understand how to obtain the subsidy through SKPS.
