KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 4 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today announced an increased monthly fuel quota of 800 litres for full-time e-hailing drivers under the Budi Madani RON95 (Budi95) initiative, also expanding the subsidy to include airport taxis.
Speaking in the Dewan Rakyat, Anwar said the decision to raise the e-hailing quota from the previous 600 litres was made after receiving feedback that the amount was inadequate for drivers.
“Therefore, the government has agreed to increase the Budi95 eligibility limit for e-hailing drivers to 800 litres per month,” he said, adding that this was equivalent to a travel distance of about 5,000km.
The announcement marks the second increase for the scheme this year.
On October 13, the government had already raised the quota for nearly 58,000 e-hailing drivers from 300 litres to 600 litres per month.
