Amir Hamzah: 300L RON95 Quota Enough, MyKad Key to Targeted Subsidy

Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan said the allocation of 300 litres of subsidised RON95 per month is sufficient for most vehicle users. Based on studies, the quota represents the average consumption, covering about 170km of daily commuting.

“For example, if someone lives in Seremban and works in Kuala Lumpur or Putrajaya, it falls within the 170km we estimated,” he explained at an event in Pulau Betong.

For p-hailing drivers who depend on their vehicles for work, Amir said appeals for higher quotas will be allowed, provided they hold valid licences.

He confirmed MyKad will serve as the main identification tool for subsidy access, ensuring only Malaysians benefit. Non-citizens and foreign-registered vehicles will remain ineligible.

Amir added that existing infrastructure, including the STR system, can support the programme’s rollout on Sept 30, reinforcing both national identity and subsidy efficiency.
