Fuziah Salleh said KPDN revealed that just over 259,000 out of 410,000 eligible vehicles had applied for a fleet card under the subsidy.

Constrained business rents are vital to control the cost of doing business and the cost of living.

Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the downtrend is based on comparison during the 20 days before and after implementing targeted diesel subsidy.

The government is targeting headline inflation of 2.0-3.5 per cent and gross domestic product growth of 4.0-5.0 per cent for this year.

All tour buses and travel companies from S'pore want to raise prices because they can't get diesel subsidies, said Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Diesel subsidy rationalisation ensures efficient management to prevent misuse and reach the appropriate groups.

The targetted diesel subsidy was carried out due to excessive leakage of the fuel, especially involving the use by foreign fishing vessels.

Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the companies were called up to explain the justification of their action.

The funds from the targeted subsidy are not for increasing ministerial allowances or other interests, said Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan said the fixed price and targeted diesel subsidy implementation would see the govt save RM4 billion per year.

The operation aims to curb profiteering and price manipulation using the adjustments of diesel prices at petrol stations as an excuse.

Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan said MoF will issue the list of vehicles that are classified as luxury under the BUDI MADANI programme soon.

BUDI MADANI will benefit 700,000 diesel vehicle owners in total, covering about half of active diesel vehicles in Peninsular Malaysia.

Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said it was normal for PM to announce policy and relevant minister to provide details and follow-up actions later.

The targeted subsidy will not involve consumers in Sabah and Sarawak as it was used in nearly every family's vehicle in both states.
