Ops Gasak's main focus is to curb decanting, smuggling and misuse


The Cooking Gas Operation (OPS GASAK) is currently underway from 1 May to 31 October 2025. Its main focus is to curb illegal activities such as decanting, smuggling, and misuse by medium- and large-scale industries.

The legal authority underpinning OPS GASAK is the Supply Control Act 1961, the Price Control and Anti-Profiteering Act 2011, and the Supply Control (Amendment) Regulations 2021, known as PPKB (Amendment) 2021. This operation does not introduce any new policy or regulation, let alone involve any cutting or removal of LPG subsidies, as alleged by certain parties.
