Malaysia Petrol Price This Week (Oct 2026): RON95 RM1.99, RON97 & Diesel Down

Good news at the pump this week. For the period of October 1-7, 2026, subsidised RON95 stays at RM1.99 per litre for eligible Malaysians under BUDI95, while RON97 and diesel have both come down.

This Week's Fuel Prices (Peninsular Malaysia)

• RON95 (BUDI95, eligible citizens): RM1.99/litre, unchanged.
• RON95 (unsubsidised): RM4.52/litre, down 5 sen.
• RON97: RM5.00/litre, down 5 sen.
• Diesel: RM5.27/litre, down 15 sen.

Why Prices Dropped

The reductions were driven by a moderation in average global crude oil prices during the pricing period, helped by the resumption of operations at Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline. Weekly pump prices move with that global average.

What Is BUDI95?

BUDI95 (BUDI MADANI RON95) is Malaysia's targeted fuel subsidy. Eligible Malaysian citizens pay RM1.99 per litre for RON95, verified by MyKad at the pump, for up to 300 litres a month (the monthly quota was restored to 300L from September 1).
