KUALA LUMPUR – Individuals, small-scale farmers, and smallholder farmers from the B40 and M40 groups in Peninsular Malaysia can apply for cash assistance under the Madani subsidy assistance or Budi Madani starting tomorrow (May 28).
The Finance Ministry, in a statement today, said that individual private diesel vehicle owners could submit applications under the individual category while small-scale farmers and smallholders could submit applications under the agri-commodity category.
“Eligible recipients under both categories will receive Budi Madani assistance of RM200 per month in line with the implementation of targeted diesel subsidy,” read the statement.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, when delivering the national address last week, said the cabinet had agreed to implement targeted diesel subsidy involving consumers in Peninsular Malaysia.
According to the statement, the individual recipient must be a Malaysian citizen who owns a private diesel vehicle under 10 years of age and registered with the Road Transport Department, excluding luxury vehicles. – May 27, 2024
