Budi Madani diesel RM200 monthly cash assistance – MoF announces schedule of payment dates for 2026

The ministry of finance (MOF) has announced the payment dates for the RM200 Budi Diesel monthly cash assistance for 2026, applicable to eligible private owners of diesel vehicles and agriculture smallholders in Peninsular Malaysia.

The diesel cash assistance programme was announced in May 2024, ahead of the implementation of the targeted diesel subsidy scheme that began on June 9, 2024. To recap, one can apply for diesel subsidies under Budi Individu or Budi Agri-Komoditi categories for farmers (fleet owners have their own Sistem Kawalan Diesel Bersubsidi fleet card).

    The diesel-petrol subsidy gap is a blatant double standard. For example, diesel fixed subsidy only eligible for M’sian with annual income below RM100k, merely a M40?

    So why is an M40 earner being squeezed at the diesel pump while the wealthiest T15 are still filling up with subsidized RON 95?

    Expecting people to ‘just switch’ to petrol cars they can’t afford shows a complete disconnect from the financial reality of the middle class.
