KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 28 — The government has approved nearly 21,700 applications to transfer BUDI Madani Diesel eligibility as of yesterday, including 12,160 applications from Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan.
Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan said the mechanism allows registered owners of eligible diesel vehicles to transfer their eligibility to Malaysian citizens with valid MyKad who qualify for BUDI95 and are the actual users of the vehicles.
He said the improvements, implemented since September 16, 2026, were aimed at addressing situations where vehicles are used by family members or employees who are not the registered owners, including informal hire-purchase arrangements known as “sambung bayar”, particularly in Sabah and Sarawak.
