No sudden changes in fuel subsidy policies, decisions will be guided by data - DPM Fadillah
Fadillah said the government recognises that the conflict in West Asia could persist for one to two years, but any action taken will prioritise protecting the majority of Malaysians.
KUALA LUMPUR - The government will not introduce abrupt or sudden changes to fuel subsidy policies despite mounting pressure from geopolitical tensions in West Asia, according to Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
In fact, he assured that any policy decisions would be guided by comprehensive data analysis rather than rushed measures.
Fadillah said the government recognises that the conflict in West Asia could persist for one to two years, but any action taken will prioritise protecting the majority of Malaysians.
"This is a challenge we are aware of, and we must rely on data to determine the necessary steps to ensure energy supply remains secure, the people are protected, economic growth continues, and industries receive the support they need.”
He said this when featured on Bernama Radio’s exclusive interview on how geopolitical crisis drives Malaysia’s energy transition, at Wisma Bernama here today. - BERNAMA
