How Petrol Prices are Determined in Malaysia<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Historically, the price of petrol in Malaysia was subsided by the government to keep the price artificially low. However, this changed in recent years when the government adopted a managed float system<\/strong> where the price of fuel would be announced monthly. Price adjustments are made based on the average price per liter of refined oil.<\/p>\n

Starting March 29, 2017 the government decided to switch up the system again and adopt a weekly ceiling price<\/strong>. This means that individual petrol stations are allowed to deviate from the ceiling price, provided they get approval from the government first.<\/p>\n

The announcement that the system would change from a monthly price announcement to a weekly ceiling price came as a surprise and caught a lot of station owners off guard, fearing they would face heavy competition in terms of fuel prices.<\/p>\n

However, a deviation from the ceiling price requires approval from the government and as long fuel price does not rise too much, individual stations have no reason to deviate from the ceiling price. Here’s the list of the petrol prices in the 2017.<\/p>\n

“The Finance Minister II said the government would only consider stepping in if the global crude oil price increases to such a critical level that could lead to an extreme inflation of the economy.” The Sun reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n
