Cabinet had agreed to this.
"The prices for RON95, RON97 (petrol) and diesel will be based on the automatic price mechanism and will be announced weekly," said Lim in a statement on Wednesday (Feb 27).
The current retail prices of fuel per litre are: RON95 petrol (RM2.08), RON97 petrol (RM2.38) and diesel (RM2.18).
