KUALA LUMPUR, May 18 ― The Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living is in the final stage of establishing fuel stations with no subsidy in several other states after the ones in Perlis, which were established as a pilot project, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
“The total government subsidy savings is about RM5 million. The two non-subsidised petrol stations in Perlis recorded an increase of 14.75 per cent in sales for diesel without subsidy and 43.27 per cent for RON95 without subsidy,” he said. In ensuring adequate food supply, especially in high-density areas, Ahmad Zahid said a special study of the population profile had been conducted by the Department of Statistics Malaysia in four selected administrative districts.He said based on the study, DoSM suggested a minimum of one farmer's market for an area with a population of between 3,001 and 5,000 people, while for a population of 100,001 and above, a minimum of 10 farmer's markets was recommended.
