However, a consumer group says the government's decision will ensure that consumer prices do not go when the RON95 petrol is allowed to float from Jan 1. FMTNews

The price of RON95 petrol will be allowed to float from Jan 1 in the Peninsula but will be maintained at the subsidised rate of RM2.08 in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan.

Bandar Kuching MP Kelvin Yii said he was happy that the price cap was maintained, but urged that a proper check mechanism be put in place to make sure that the system was not abused and to profit the rich instead. “In any case, the discrimination means that the B40 community in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan will pay for the same fuel prices as other more well-off road users,” he said when contacted by FMT.Earlier today, consumer affairs minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail announced that the price of RON95 would be maintained at the current level of RM2.08 a litre for people in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan.
