Targeted subsidies foster growth and sustainability


THE government’s decision to implement targeted fuel subsidies, starting with diesel, represents a strategic and prudent approach to managing public finances while promoting social equity.

By focusing subsidies on lower-income groups such as small farmers, fishermen, and small and medium enterprises, the policy ensures that financial support is directed towards those who need it most.
