Despite the climb in fuel prices, the price of RON 95 petrol in Malaysia remains among the lowest the region as well as Saudi Arabia, according to the ministry of domestic trade and cost of living (KPDN). Based on retail fuel prices in Malaysia for the week of April 2 to 8, 2026, an illustration by Jabatan Penerangan Malaysia showed that petrol and diesel fuels in Malaysia are still cheaper than in other ASEAN countries and in Saudi Arabia, except for Brunei, where petrol is at the equivalent of RM1.67 per litre, and diesel at the equivalent of RM0.98 per litre. Among other neighbouring countries, fuel prices in Thailand were listed as the equivalent of RM6.48 per litre for petrol, and the equivalent of RM4.95 per litre for diesel. Meanwhile for Singapore, fuel prices in the city-state were listed as the equivalent of RM10.30 per per litre for petrol, and the equivalent of RM12.05 per litre for diesel. Other countries listed in terms of prices for fuels include Laos (petrol RM7.20, diesel RM7.65), the Philippines (petrol RM6.43, diesel RM7.99), Myanmar (petrol RM6.35, diesel RM7.05), Cambodia (petrol RM6.26, diesel RM7.27), Vietnam (petrol RM2.96, diesel RM3.49), and Indonesia (petrol 2.96, diesel RM3.49). Last month, prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced that the initial 300 litre monthly quota for RON 95 petrol under the Budi Madani RON 95 fuel subsidy programme is to be temporarily reduced to 200 litres a month. Meanwhile for diesel fuel, the ministry of finance (MoF) announced earlier this week that the monthly cash assistance under the Budi Madani Diesel initiative will be maintained at RM300 for the month of April 2026.
