THE existing diesel subsidy system will continue and will be improved by ensuring that vehicles that transport diesel supplies from fuel stations or skid tanks are equipped with a “fleet card” system to monitor diesel consumption and avoid leakage, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said.
Speaking in a press conference after chairing the National Economic Action Council today, Anwar, who is also the finance minister, said the country’s diesel subsidy system should be improved following the country’s subsidy liability jumping to RM13 billion last year.
