Fishermen still sheltered by original subsidy despite Budi95, says LKIM


MUAR: The government's move to implement targeted fuel subsidies does not affect the original subsidies currently enjoyed by some 112,000 registered fishermen nationwide.

Malaysian Fisheries Development Board (LKIM) chairman Muhammad Faiz Fadzil said that on the contrary, fishermen also receive additional benefits through the Budi Madani 95 (BUDI95) initiative, which reduced their travelling costs to the petrol station.
