<p><span>Enter your MyKad number (numbers only, without dashes or spaces).</span></p>
<p></a></p>
<p><span>The system will instantly confirm whether you are eligible for the subsidy.</span></p>
<p><span>To access the subsidised fuel, motorists will need a one-time MyKad verification on first use. This can be done either at the petrol pump using a MyKad terminal, or over the counter at participating stations.</span></p>
<p><span>Those who prefer to pay by credit or debit card can verify directly at the station, while users of selected e-wallets and petrol company apps can complete verification online through e-KYC (electronic Know-Your-Customer). Currently, Touch ‘n Go eWallet, Petronas Setel, and Caltex Go Rewards support the feature, with Petron and BHPetrol apps set to follow. If payment is made through an app, there is no need for manual over-the-counter verification.</span></p>
<p><span><strong>Quota and Rules</strong></span></p>
<p><span>Those approved for the subsidy will be allocated 300 litres of RON 95 petrol every month, while e-hailing drivers are exempt from this cap and can refuel at the subsidised rate without limits. Although daily refuelling is unrestricted, authorities plan to enforce measures to stop exploitation and unfair resale.</span></p>

<p><span>Kerajaan Negeri Johor sekali lagi menggesa pentadbiran persekutuan supaya mengetatkan undang-undang sedia ada, bagi membolehkan tindakan terus diambil terhadap pemilik kenderaan berdaftar asing yang dikesan membeli petrol bersubsidi RON95.</span></p>
<p><span>Menurut laporan NST, Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pelaburan, Hal Ehwal Pengguna dan Sumber Manusia Johor, Lee Ting Han, berkata cadangan tersebut telah dikemukakan kepada kerajaan persekutuan sejak empat bulan lalu. Beliau menjelaskan bahawa mengikut peraturan semasa, penguatkuasaan hanya boleh dilaksanakan terhadap pengusaha stesen minyak, manakala pemandu asing yang melanggar larangan ini kebanyakannya terlepas daripada tindakan undang-undang.</span></p>
<p><span>Kerajaan negeri, katanya, akan terus melobi supaya pindaan dibuat bagi memberi kuasa kepada pegawai Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Kos Sara Hidup (KPDN) untuk mengenakan hukuman secara langsung ke atas pesalah. Perubahan ini, tegas beliau, penting demi melindungi sumber negara dan memastikan undang-undang Malaysia dipatuhi.</span></p>
<p><span>Isu ini kembali hangat selepas dua insiden berasingan di Johor baru-baru ini, melibatkan kenderaan berdaftar asing yang didapati mengisi petrol RON95. Kejadian pertama berlaku di sebuah stesen minyak di Nusa Sentral, Iskandar Puteri, manakala kejadian kedua dikesan di Lebuhraya Senai-Desaru (SDE).</span></p>
<p><span>KPDN Johor telah memulakan siasatan awal, termasuk meneliti rakaman kamera litar tertutup (CCTV) di stesen terlibat. Lee memaklumkan, hasil siasatan akan diserahkan kepada Timbalan Pendakwa Raya untuk tindakan lanjut sebaik selesai.</span></p>
<p><span>Perkara ini turut mencetuskan perhatian di media sosial minggu lalu, selepas tersebar gambar seorang lelaki mengisi minyak kereta berdaftar Singapura di stesen Nusa Sentral, sebelum didakwa turut mengisi petrol RON95 ke dalam bekas plastik. Beberapa hari kemudian, tular pula imej sebuah lagi kenderaan berdaftar Singapura sedang diisi bahan api bersubsidi di sebuah stesen minyak di SDE.</span></p>

<p><span>Porsche is set to introduce a new petrol-powered crossover by 2028, following the discontinuation of the first-generation Macan in Europe. The move comes amid tightening safety regulations and a reassessment of market demand for electric vehicles.</span></p>
<p><a href="https://thepistonshow.com/galleries/porsche-confirms-new-petrol-powered-crossover-for-2028-as-ev-demand-slows-2/"><img loading="lazy" width="800" height="490" src="https://thepistonshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2022-Porsche-Macan-T-3.jpg" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-179292" alt="Porsche Confirms New Petrol-Powered Crossover for 2028 as EV Demand Slows" decoding="async" srcset="https://thepistonshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2022-Porsche-Macan-T-3.jpg 1024w, https://thepistonshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2022-Porsche-Macan-T-3-300x184.jpg 300w, https://thepistonshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/2022-Porsche-Macan-T-3-768x470.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></a></p>
<p><span>The original Macan was withdrawn from the European market in 2024 due to its failure to comply with the updated General Safety Regulation (GSR2), which came into effect in July. While the model will continue to be sold in markets not subject to these rules, global production is expected to cease in 2026, bringing the chapter on Porsche’s best-selling compact SUV to a close.</span></p>
<p><span>During the first-half earnings call for 2025, Porsche CEO Oliver Blume confirmed that the company has fast-tracked development of an entirely new combustion-engine crossover. He described the upcoming vehicle as a model that will be unmistakably Porsche, aimed at the same segment as the outgoing Macan but distinctly different from the forthcoming all-electric Macan.</span></p>
<p><span>Blume emphasised that the development timeline is being condensed to ensure the new SUV reaches showrooms within three years. Although specific technical details were not disclosed, the swift turnaround suggests Porsche may leverage Volkswagen Group’s Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) architecture. This is the same platform underpinning the latest Audi Q5, a vehicle that has already debuted with petrol, diesel, and hybrid powertrains.</span></p>
<p><span>The idea of platform sharing is not new to Porsche. The outgoing Macan was built on the Volkswagen MLB architecture, which it shared with the previous-generation Q5. Porsche has acknowledged that the new model will benefit from these synergies, likely expediting development and reducing costs.</span></p>
<p><span>If the pattern holds, the upcoming Porsche SUV could mirror elements of the new Audi Q5 or its performance sibling, the SQ5, which uses a 3.0-litre mild-hybrid V6 generating 362hp. However, Porsche is expected to avoid diesel powertrains, having distanced itself from the technology in 2018 in the wake of the Dieselgate scandal.</span></p>
<p><span>While design and engineering details remain under wraps, the new crossover will adopt what Porsche describes as its &#8220;characteristic profile.&#8221; The vehicle will maintain a footprint comparable to the Macan but carry a different name. Porsche plans to retire the &#8220;Macan&#8221; nameplate alongside the first-generation model and reserve it exclusively for the fully electric second-generation version.</span></p>
<p><span>The decision to launch another internal combustion SUV signals a notable pivot in Porsche’s product strategy. The company had initially planned to phase out ICE-powered models in favour of EVs, with the electric Macan expected to lead the charge. However, slower-than-anticipated consumer adoption of EVs has prompted a reassessment. Porsche now recognises that demand for combustion and hybrid vehicles remains strong, necessitating a broader approach.</span></p>
<p><span>Blume&#8217;s announcement reflects a new direction for the marque as it navigates a market still in transition. By reintroducing a petrol-powered SUV, Porsche is aiming to maintain its foothold in a segment that remains crucial to its global sales strategy. The upcoming model will not only fill the void left by the original Macan, but also reinforce the brand’s presence in the premium SUV market, balancing innovation with tradition.</span></p>

<p><span>Kerajaan Persekutuan dijangka memulakan langkah rasionalisasi subsidi bahan api RON95 pada separuh kedua tahun 2025, menurut Menteri Kewangan Kedua, Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan, seperti dilaporkan oleh Bernama.</span></p>
<p><span>Dalam satu kenyataan yang menegaskan komitmen kerajaan terhadap pembaharuan fiskal, Amir Hamzah memaklumkan bahawa tumpuan semasa adalah untuk memastikan subsidi yang disasarkan benar-benar sampai kepada golongan yang layak. Menurut beliau, Kementerian Kewangan kini sedang memperhalusi mekanisme pelaksanaan bagi memastikan hanya individu yang benar-benar memerlukan menerima manfaat tersebut.</span></p>
<p><span>&#8220;Kerajaan kini dalam proses mengenal pasti kriteria kelayakan yang tepat bagi pelaksanaan subsidi bersasar ini, agar pelaksanaan kelak lebih adil dan efektif,&#8221; katanya selepas merasmikan Persidangan Akauntan Antarabangsa anjuran Institut Akauntan Malaysia (MIA) bagi tahun 2025.</span></p>
<p><span>Tambah beliau, perbincangan masih berjalan antara Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim dan Jemaah Menteri bagi menetapkan ambang kelayakan subsidi yang lebih selaras dengan realiti sosioekonomi rakyat masa kini.</span></p>
<p><span>Sebagai sebahagian daripada perancangan pelaksanaan, Amir Hamzah turut mengesahkan bahawa penggunaan MyKad sebagai mekanisme pengesahan identiti sedang dipertimbangkan secara serius. Beliau menjelaskan bahawa penggunaan MyKad telah menunjukkan keberkesanan di bawah skim Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) dan berpotensi untuk digunakan dalam pelaksanaan subsidi bahan api.</span></p>
<p><span>“Kementerian sedang giat berusaha untuk memperkukuh sistem ini agar ia lebih cekap dan telus, terutamanya apabila digunakan kelak untuk subsidi RON95,” jelas beliau.</span></p>
<p><span>Langkah rasionalisasi subsidi ini dijangka menjadi sebahagian daripada strategi kerajaan dalam menstruktur semula perbelanjaan awam secara lebih mampan, di samping memastikan perlindungan sosial yang mencukupi kepada rakyat berpendapatan rendah dan sederhana.</span></p>

<p><span>The Malaysian government is set to begin the rationalisation of RON95 fuel subsidies in the second half of 2025, according to Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan, <em>Bernama</em> reported.</span></p>
<p><span>While reaffirming the government’s commitment to subsidy reforms, Amir Hamzah clarified that current efforts are concentrated on accurately identifying the groups eligible to receive targeted assistance. He explained that the Ministry of Finance (MoF) is actively working on refining the criteria to ensure that support is directed at those who need it most.</span></p>
<p><span>He stated that discussions are ongoing between Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and the Cabinet to determine the appropriate eligibility threshold, which is expected to be revised to better reflect current socioeconomic conditions.</span></p>
<p><span>Amir Hamzah, who was speaking after launching the Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) International Accountants Conference 2025, said that the use of MyKad is under serious consideration as a mechanism for implementing the targeted subsidy. He noted that the identity card had already proven effective under the Sumbangan Asas Rahmah (SARA) scheme and could be adapted for future use in the fuel subsidy system. The Ministry is currently working on tightening the system to ensure its efficiency and integrity once applied to RON95 subsidies.</span></p>

<p><span>Kerajaan kini berada di peringkat akhir perbincangan untuk melaksanakan subsidi bahan api RON95 yang disasarkan, dengan keputusan dijangka diumumkan Kabinet dalam beberapa minggu akan datang, kata Menteri Ekonomi, Rafizi Ramli, di Forum Ekonomi Malaysia hari ini.</span></p>
<p><span>Rafizi menjelaskan bahawa pendekatan baharu ini bertujuan memastikan subsidi hanya diberikan kepada isi rumah yang benar-benar layak, menandakan peralihan penting dalam pengagihan bantuan kewangan kerajaan.</span></p>
<p><span>Dalam cadangan baharu ini, kerajaan akan meninggalkan klasifikasi pendapatan tradisional seperti B40, M40, dan T20. Sebaliknya, subsidi akan diberikan berdasarkan pendapatan boleh guna bersih isi rumah, yang dianggap lebih mencerminkan keadaan kewangan sebenar rakyat.</span></p>
<p><span>“Kami sedang melalui proses dalaman untuk memuktamadkan pelan ini. Dalam beberapa minggu lagi, kerajaan akan membuat keputusan muktamad terhadap cadangan kementerian ekonomi,” kata Rafizi.</span></p>
<p><span>Setelah rancangan itu diluluskan Kabinet, proses untuk mengenal pasti penerima subsidi akan bermula. Menurut Rafizi, komunikasi yang jelas dan menyeluruh adalah penting untuk memastikan rakyat memahami perubahan ini.</span></p>
<p><span>Kerajaan akan memanfaatkan pangkalan data Padu, yang mengandungi maklumat mengenai 21 juta rakyat Malaysia, untuk melaksanakan subsidi yang disasarkan ini. Pangkalan data tersebut kini telah dibuka semula untuk pendaftaran baharu bagi memastikan ketepatan dan keterangkuman data.</span></p>
<p><span>“Padu adalah pangkalan data kerajaan yang paling komprehensif dan akan memainkan peranan penting dalam menyasarkan subsidi secara berkesan,” ujar Rafizi.</span></p>
<p><span>Langkah ini adalah sebahagian daripada strategi kerajaan untuk mengurangkan kebocoran subsidi dan meningkatkan kecekapan perbelanjaan awam. Dengan memastikan subsidi disalurkan kepada golongan yang benar-benar memerlukan, kerajaan berharap dapat mengoptimumkan penggunaan sumber kewangan negara sambil mengurangkan pembaziran.</span></p>
<p><span>Rangka kerja subsidi yang disasarkan ini mencerminkan komitmen kerajaan untuk memperhalusi kaedah bantuan ekonomi dan meningkatkan tanggungjawab fiskal.</span></p>
<p><span>Rakyat dijangka menerima maklumat lanjut dan penjelasan menyeluruh selepas Kabinet membuat keputusan muktamad mengenai pelaksanaan subsidi ini.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim telah menegaskan bahawa kerajaan Malaysia masih belum membuat keputusan muktamad mengenai pelaksanaan subsidi petrol RON95 yang disasarkan. Menurut laporan dari FMT, semasa Waktu Pertanyaan Perdana Menteri di Dewan Rakyat, Anwar menjelaskan bahawa walaupun kajian telah dijalankan, tiada kertas dasar telah disediakan mengenai isu tersebut.</p>
<h4>Penilaian Rasionalisasi Subsidi yang Sedia Ada</h4>
<p>Anwar menyatakan bahawa kerajaan lebih suka menilai hasil rasionalisasi subsidi yang telah dilaksanakan sepanjang tahun lalu untuk elektrik, ayam, dan diesel sebelum membuat sebarang keputusan mengenai subsidi petrol. &#8220;Mari kita lihat kesan dan ukur reaksi orang ramai. Selepas itu, kita akan bersedia untuk membincangkan apa yang perlu dilakukan,&#8221; katanya. Pendekatan berhati-hati ini bertujuan memastikan sebarang perubahan subsidi yang bakal dilaksanakan tidak membawa kesan negatif yang tidak dijangka kepada rakyat.</p>
<p><span id="more-144983"></span></p>
<h4>Cabaran dalam Pelaksanaan Subsidi</h4>
<p>Mengakui kesukaran dalam melaksanakan rasionalisasi subsidi, Anwar menekankan cabaran utama adalah untuk memastikan pengagihan subsidi yang adil. &#8220;3.8 juta warga asing menggunakan bahan api ini, malah orang kaya yang memandu Rolls Royce menggunakan bahan api bersubsidi. Bagaimanakah kita akan menyelesaikannya?&#8221; ujar beliau, menekankan keperluan untuk memastikan subsidi benar-benar memberi manfaat kepada golongan yang memerlukannya.</p>
<h4>Kenyataan Menteri Ekonomi dan Tindakan Selanjutnya</h4>
<p>Sebelum ini, Menteri Ekonomi Rafizi Ramli mencadangkan bahawa keputusan mengenai penghapusan subsidi menyeluruh bagi petrol RON95 mungkin diumumkan secara mengejut, mirip dengan penarikan subsidi diesel pada 10 Jun lalu. Namun, Anwar menolak cadangan ini sambil mengulangi bahawa tiada keputusan telah dibuat.</p>
<h4>Harga Semasa dan Pertimbangan Masa Depan</h4>
<p>Petrol RON95 kini dijual pada harga subsidi RM2.05 seliter. Kerajaan sedang dalam proses menilai pendekatan terbaik untuk memastikan subsidi tersebut benar-benar memberi manfaat kepada golongan yang paling memerlukannya, sambil mempertimbangkan isu ekuiti dan kemampanan. Pendekatan berhati-hati dan berasaskan data ini diambil untuk mengelakkan sebarang implikasi negatif yang mungkin timbul daripada perubahan dasar subsidi yang drastik.</p>
<h4>Kesimpulan</h4>
<p>Kerajaan Malaysia terus mengkaji dan menilai pelbagai aspek dalam pelaksanaan subsidi petrol RON95 yang disasarkan. Dengan pendekatan yang berhati-hati dan teliti, keputusan yang diambil kelak diharapkan dapat mencapai keseimbangan antara keberkesanan subsidi dan kesejahteraan rakyat.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim reaffirmed that the government has not yet finalised a decision regarding the implementation of targeted RON95 petrol subsidies, noting that no policy paper has been prepared on the matter.</p>
<p>According to FMT, during Prime Minister’s Question Time in the Dewan Rakyat, Anwar highlighted that while studies have been conducted, the government prefers to first evaluate the outcomes of subsidy rationalisation for electricity, chicken, and diesel implemented over the past year.</p>
<p>&#8220;Let’s see the impact and gauge the public reaction. After that, we’ll be ready to discuss what needs to be done,&#8221; Anwar stated in response to a supplementary question from Ahmad Fadhli Shaari (PN-Pasir Mas) on potential targeted subsidies for RON95 petrol.</p>
<p><span id="more-144981"></span></p>
<p>Anwar did not dismiss the possibility of future subsidy rationalisation but emphasised the government&#8217;s cautious approach. &#8220;Subsidy rationalisation is difficult to implement. If you ask me, (the lifting of subsidies for) RON95 should have been implemented long ago, but it’s not easy,&#8221; he explained.</p>
<p>He pointed out the challenge of ensuring fair subsidy distribution, noting that &#8220;3.8 million foreigners use this fuel, and even wealthy people driving Rolls Royce use subsidised fuel. How are we going to resolve this?&#8221;</p>
<p>Previously, Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli suggested that the decision to remove blanket subsidies for RON95 petrol might be announced unexpectedly, similar to the lifting of diesel subsidies on June 10. However, Anwar dismissed this, reiterating that no decision has been made.</p>
<p>RON95 petrol is currently sold at a subsidised price of RM2.05 per litre. The government continues to assess the best approach to ensure subsidies benefit those who need them most, while addressing issues of equity and sustainability.</p>

<p>&#8216;Kidney Grille&#8217; yang kontroversi menjalani penggayaan semula, dengan i4 menampilkan bahagian atas tertutup untuk mencerminkan keperluan penyejukannya yang berkurangan berbanding dengan Gran Coupe. Lampu depan dan lampu belakang yang dikemas kini, bersama-sama dengan pilihan roda baharu menambah pada penyegaran luaran.</p>

<p>Powered by a 2.0-litre TwinPower turbo engine producing 204hp and 300Nm of torque, the Mini Cooper S accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in just 6.6 seconds. Its suspension and damping system are tuned for agile handling, ensuring a dynamic ride on any road.</p>

<p>There are four vehicle trims available for the Mini Cooper S, with the Classic Trim offering additional body colours and contrasting roof finishes. The Ocean Wave Green colour enhances the minimalist design, while the contrasting white roof and mirror caps add to its presence.</p>
