Diesel subsidy rationalisation reduced leakages, says Lim


KUALA LUMPUR: The government’s diesel subsidy rationalisation has proven effective in reducing fuel leakages, particularly those linked to smuggling, with sales dropping by more than 300 million litres per month since June last year.

Deputy Finance Minister Lim Hui Ying (pic) said statistics show that about 465 million litres of diesel were sold per month between June and December 2024, compared with around 770 million litres per month between January and May last year.
