He said, based on data from the Road Transport Department and National Registration Department, it is estimated that over 16 million people will benefit from this measure.
He stated that the subsidy is not based on income, and there is no need for special registration; citizens just need to use their MyKad to enjoy the subsidized price, with the only additional step being MyKad authentication.
