Sabah, Sarawak Keep Subsidised Diesel at RM2.15 with Purchase Limits; Peninsular Diesel Rises 80 Sen

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim confirmed that subsidised diesel prices in Sabah and Sarawak will remain at RM2.15 per litre while introducing purchase limits to manage subsidies. In contrast, diesel prices in Peninsular Malaysia will increase by 80 sen to RM5.52 per litre from March 26 to April 1, reflecting regional fuel policy differences. Observers will watch how these pricing and rationing measures impact fuel consumption and economic activities across Malaysia's regions in the coming weeks.
