Kuala Lumpur: The retail price of RON97 petrol will increase by six sen per litre while those for RON95 and diesel will remain unchanged for the Feb 17 to 23 period.
The Finance Ministry, in a statement Wednesday, said the retail price of RON97 will increase from RM3.21 to RM3.27 per litre, while RON95 and diesel will remain at RM2.05 and RM2.15 per litre, respectively.
“To protect consumers from the impact of actual increase in world oil prices, the Government has maintained the retail price of RON95 petrol at the ceiling price of RM2.05 per litre and diesel at RM2.15 per litre although the actual market prices of these two products have exceeded the set ceiling levels,” it said.
