I live in a developing nation called Malaysia. Some of you might not know where exactly it is. We’re a small country of 34 million, formed in 1963, not even 100 years old.
Maybe you’ve heard of the Petronas Twin Towers. If not, chances are you’ve probably never heard much about us at all.
We’re kind of the underdog of countries. Multilingual. Multi-cultural. Still figuring things out.
But today feels like a win for Malaysians.
While fuel prices are high around the world, here our price is RM1.99 per litre (about US$0.42). It even dropped by RM0.06 beginning today for eligible Malaysians.
For some, that may not sound like much but for millions of Malaysians, every cent matters. And it’s possible because the government subsidises fuel and because we produce oil ourselves.
This is managed under a program called BUDI95 as you can see from the screenshot. It’s a targeted subsidy scheme where eligible Malaysians receive a 300-litre quota of petrol per month at the subsidised price.
To access it, we use our national ID card (with a built-in electronic chip), which verifies our identity at the pump. The system is also integrated with cashless apps, making the whole process seamless.
(Our ID card can also be used to pay for parking, highway tolls, metro, trains etc).
So today, I can pull up to a station, use my ID card and refuel with a benefit that helps millions of Malaysians keep daily costs manageable.
I share this because:
(a) My audience comes from all around the world and no international media outlet will ever report this. 😂
(b) My point isn’t to brag, but to show how even small, developing nations can innovate and progress.
To my fellow Malaysians: congratulations on this historic day.
Sometimes, being the underdog means we quietly make things work. And that’s something worth celebrating.
And by the way, next year is Visit Malaysia Year 2026. If you’re curious to know more about us, just head over to YouTube.
You’ll find countless travellers who’ve discovered how special this country really is.

Project ni personal untuk aku, I want nothing less than the best untuk safety video yang somehow become a gateway, front page untuk identiti Malaysia bagi traveller dari seluruh dunia.
This is the best i can do, within my capacity.
Demi tanah air, always.
The full MAS safety video. Wow every single element from music to Malay accent to casts are all highlighting Malaysia 🥹 Directed by Tiara Jacquelina and Co-directed by Yusry KRU 💞
Belanda tawan Melaka melalui pakatan dengan Johor. Ada perjanjian dengan Johor untuk tak jajah tanah Melayu (Johor) lain.
Sebab tu tak ada cerita jajah sana-sini macam British.
Konflik Belanda-Johor lebih kepada ekonomi dan perdagangan. Selain tu, kira agak friendly.
Saya baca komen penyokong PN, mereka kata kalau Anwar turun, ramai pemimpin PN boleh gantikan. Antaranya Muhyiddin, Dr Sam & Hamzah.
Nampak sangat bengap. Kalau Anwar turun, yang akan ganti dia ialah ahli parlimen parti kerajaan lah. Celah mana pembangkang boleh jadi PM? 😂
Kepada yg sokong PN, tengok ni YB Duyong bikin kerja. Bukan buat benda pelik². Pada org UMNO, ada contoh baik dlm parti, kau ikut org tak senonoh buat apa?
Salam Jumaat, Salam Ramadhan dan Selamat Hari Raya mat jargon dan fadhli lembu.
Nanti masa berkempen PRK Ayer Kuning balun kaw² lagi bab agama dan kaum. Tak cukup power tu. Kalau ikut kiraan 28 kes tu tak jauh 26 undi yg Jagon dapat. Sikit sangat.
Ajer gampang!!
"Zon Masa Semenanjung Malaysia Guna Sebenarnya Salah?"
Pernah tak korang rasa pelik kenapa waktu Maghrib di Sabah lebih awal berbanding di Semenanjung?
Kadang-kadang beza tu hampir sejam walaupun guna zon waktu yang sama!
Bangsat.
Kau tau berapa banyak RM100 juta tu?
RM100,000,000 kalau kau belanja seribu ringgit SEHARI, nak bagi habis duit tu akan ambil masa 273 tahun!!!
