Hey Malaysia! Buckle up, because we're going to talk about gas prices, a topic that hits all of our wallets.

As many of you know, there has recently been talk of a possible price increase for RON95 petrol.

Let's break it down and see how it might affect us.

Why the pump might be pumping a little harder

Remember the recent diesel price hike?

Yeah, it wasn't much fun.

Well, the government is trying to ease the burden of fuel subsidies, especially when global oil prices are rising.

By adjusting the subsidy of 95 RON, we try to find a good place to control costs and keep things affordable for us drivers.

So when exactly will this happen?

There are two options on the horizon: July 2024 or October 2024.

July would help the government meet its savings targets for this year, while October would give them more time to see how the diesel price change has affected and perhaps lessen the blow to us consumers.

The more we talk?

Experts predict a "slight correction" of the recent diesel jump (oh, that 56% increase still stings).

The exact amount is still under wraps, but hopefully it won't be that dramatic.

Do you feel pressure from the pump? To prepare, do the following.

Although the exact date and price increase is still a mystery, here are some things you can do to prepare:

Stay informed: Keep an eye out. out for official announcements on RON95 price changes. Stay informed by following reliable sources such as government websites or news.

Fuel efficiency is your friend: Thinking of buying a new car? Fuel efficiency is preferred! The less gas your car guzzles, the less pressure you will feel from the pump.

Explore your options. Taking public transportation with friends, using public transportation to run errands, or even biking short distances is a great way to reduce your gas dependency. Remember, every little bit helps!

Look Ahead: Transport Cost Management

A price change of 95 RON is definitely something to consider.

But hey, if we are aware and plan ahead, we can face these changes head on and manage our transportation costs effectively.

Remember, a little planning goes a long way!

Just who remembers the good old days when filling up the tank didn't feel like a trip to the dentist?

Let's hope this adjustment is really "gentle" and doesn't leave us feeling like we have to take a new job just to drive! In the meantime, share your tips on how we can all be more fuel-efficient drivers in the comments below.
