Backup Plans in Place to Guarantee Smooth RON95 Subsidy Rollout - PDAM
The government’s new Budi Madani RON95 (Budi95) programme will roll out from 27 September, and petrol dealers say motorists have nothing to worry about when it comes to fuel supply or system hiccups.
According to the Petrol Dealers Association of Malaysia (PDAM), station operators nationwide are ready with backup measures to ensure a smooth transition as the subsidised RM1.99 per litre price takes effect.
“Even if there are minor disruptions at the pumps, operators have continuity plans in place
The public shouldn’t feel burdened and we want to make sure they continue to enjoy the new price,” PDAM president Datuk Khairul Annuar Abdul Aziz told Bernama TV.
He added that any arising issues should be met with patience, stressing that operators are committed to keeping the rollout seamless.
The Budi95 initiative, announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, lowers the price of RON95 petrol from RM2.05 to RM1.99 per litre.

The programme will be phased in, beginning with 300,000 military and police personnel on 27 September, expanding to Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah (STR) recipients on 28 September, and finally covering 16 million Malaysians aged 16 and above with a MyKad and valid driving licence from 30 September.
