Targeted subsidy framework won't lead to cost increases, Dewan Rakyat told

KUALA LUMPUR: The exact mechanism for targeted subsidies is still under consideration and is not expected to cause any increase of costs to the industries concerned, says Deputy Finance Minister Lim Hui Ying.

She told the Dewan Rakyat on Monday (March 18) that the government remains focused on effective implementation of targeted subsidies, and would strive to prevent any unexpected "surprises" for the economy.
