【2021财政预算案】推动绿色计划 即日起每公升汽油税调高0.10元至0.15元
副总理兼财政部长王瑞杰表示，为推动我国的绿色计划，即日起每公升汽油税将调高0.10元至0.15元。
不过，政府拨款1亿1300万元，协助国人抵消汽油税上调。包括德士司机和摩托车骑士，今年都能获得路税回扣。税务回扣将在今年8月1日生效。
私人汽车和德士司机，可获得15%路税回扣；德士司机则每月可获得额外360元的补贴。
摩托车骑士将获得60%的回扣，而商业用途的车辆，包括货车、巴士等，将获100%的回扣。预计陆路交通管理局将在今年4月公布更多详情。
政府也鼓励国人改用电动车，计划缩小电动车和一般内燃式引擎车辆的价差。
接下来五年，政府将拨款3000万元，资助与电动车有关的计划，例如改善私有建筑内的充电设施。
