The price of RON97 will stay at RM3.47 per litre, RON95 at RM2.05 per litre and diesel at RM2.15 a litre.
These prices will remain effective until Dec 20.
The ministry said the government would continue to monitor global crude oil price trends and take appropriate measures to ensure the continued welfare and well-being of the people.
“To protect consumers from global oil price increases, the government will maintain the ceiling price of RON95 at RM2.05 per litre and diesel at RM2.15 per litre, even though the market price (derived from the automatic pricing mechanism) for RON95 and diesel has increased beyond the current ceiling price,” it said in a statement.
