Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan informed the Dewan Rakyat that the government has authorized approximately 21,700 applications to transfer BUDI Madani diesel subsidy eligibility. This initiative, which began on September 16, 2026, permits registered owners of qualifying diesel vehicles to shift their subsidy benefits to actual users who possess a valid MyKad and meet BUDI95 criteria. A significant portion of these approvals, totaling 12,160, originated from Sabah, Sarawak, and Labuan. The policy adjustment aims to accommodate practical scenarios where vehicles are operated by family members, employees, or individuals involved in informal hire-purchase agreements, commonly referred to as “sambung bayar.” Furthermore, owners possessing multiple diesel vehicles are permitted to transfer their eligibility to a maximum of three distinct individuals, provided the allocation aligns with the total number of vehicles owned.
