Published on: Fri, May 30, 2025 Text Size: PUTRAJAYA: Businesses using less than 42 kilograms of subsidised liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) at any one time are not required to apply for a Scheduled Controlled Goods Permit (PBKB), clarified Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Enforcement Director-General Datuk Azman Adam. The clarification comes amid OPS Gasak, a nationwide enforcement campaign running from 1 May to 31 October 2025 to curb LPG subsidy misuse. 'The focus is on cracking down on illegal decanting activities and preventing misuse of subsidised LPG by medium and large-scale industries. "LPG suppliers are allowed to continue supplying subsidised LPG cylinders to existing customers, including food and beverage vendors, even if they do not yet have a PBKB," he said in a statement. During the campaign, officers will focus on advocacy and compliance at F&B outlets, with no legal action taken for missing permits. Businesses exceeding the limit are urged to apply via BLESS 2.0, while suppliers may continue deliveries to existing customers without a PBKB. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
