We are to study either the public or the “rakyat” know about the subsidies that are given by the government. Malaysia as one of the top subsidized country around the world has launched to reduce subsidies to capture its development goals. (Saeed, Fatimah & Roza, 2013). Subsidy can be defined as a benefit given by the government to groups or individuals usually in the form of a cash payment or tax reduction.
