Malaysia's Subsidised Petrol Control Scheme, known as SKPS (Skim Kawalan Petrol Bersubsidi) helps reduce fuel expenses for essential industries. For companies operating fleet vehicles, the fleet card plays a crucial role in accessing and managing subsidised RON95 petrol.

The guide explains everything you need to know about the SKPS subsidy, who qualifies, how to apply, and how businesses can streamline fuel management using a Radius fleet card.

What is SKPS and why does it matter?

SKPS stands for the Skim Kawalan Petrol Bersubsidi, a national initiative by the Malaysian government to control and distribute subsidised RON95 petrol to specific industries. It replaces the earlier Bantuan Subsidi Petrol (BSP) programme.

The objective is simple:

• Ensure critical sectors get RON95 at a controlled, lower price.
• Reduce operating costs for transport and logistics businesses.
• Keep essential services affordable for the public.
• Prevent leakages and misuse of subsidised fuel.

In short, SKPS protects businesses that keep Malaysia moving.
