PETALING JAYA: The Government has implemented a subsidy rationalisation for petroleum products, based on the upward or downward trend of crude oil which has reached over US$60 (RM249) per barrel.

"This step has successfully decreased leakages and ensured that targeted subsidies are granted,” the Finance Ministry said in a statement Monday.
