BUDI Diesel eligibility rules have been expanded, allowing transfers to eligible users and up to three other private diesel vehicles
KUCHING: The government has agreed to expand the BUDI MADANI Diesel (BUDI Diesel) eligibility transfer facility, allowing registered owners of private diesel vehicles to transfer their eligibility to any eligible actual user, effective immediately.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said previously, the transfer of eligibility was restricted to immediate family members.
“Although we announced BUDI95 (BUDI MADANI RON95) at 300 litres per month on the eve of National Day on Aug 31, pickup and jeep owners – an issue prevalent in Sabah and Sarawak – were still voicing their grievances, so we raised the subsidised diesel limit to 400 litres per month.
“But this is the meaning of democracy – we listen. There were still some concerns, and ministers from Sabah and Sarawak raised these concerns, so in addition to last month’s announcement, the government has agreed to improve BUDI Diesel,” he said at the national-level Malaysia Day 2026 celebrations at the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) here tonight.
In addition, Anwar said registered owners of more than one private diesel vehicle were allowed to transfer the monthly BUDI Diesel eligibility of those vehicles to a maximum of three other vehicles.
