ALOR SETAR: The Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry is expanding Phase Two of the Subsidised Diesel Control System (SKDS) 2.0 project to another 14 types of commercial vehicles.
Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali (pic) said the increase would bring the total number of commercial vehicles eligible for subsidised diesel to 23 types.
“Applications can be made through the MySubsidi Diesel System starting tomorrow (today) at 10am,” he told reporters after delivering his address at the ministry’s northern zone monthly assembly in Anak Bukit near here yesterday.
The newly added categories are rigid lorries (curtainsiders), food catering lorries, rigid lorries (agricultural produce), rigid tank lorries (beverages), rigid lorries (livestock transport), semi (panel vans) and combination rigid lorries.
Also included are service buses, rigid lorries (open platforms), moving service vans, food catering buses, rigid lorries (moving services), food catering vans and rigid lorries (waste), Bernama reported.
Armizan said registration for the 14 types of new vehicles could be done through the link https://mysubsidi.kpdn.gov.my/.
He said companies applying for the subsidy must be registered for business in Malaysia, with the vehicle having valid and up-to-date road tax, and being eligible under the system.
Once the application has been approved, Armizan said the company should immediately submit the Fleet Card application to five designated oil companies, namely PETRONAS, Shell, Petron, Caltex and BHP.
