The Vice Minister of Internal Trade of the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and MSMEs (MICM), Ramón Pérez Fermín, reported that, for the week of January 4 to 10, 2025, the government of President Luis Abinader provided subsidies in the amount of RD$269.2 million with the objective of keeping the price of four essential fuels unchanged so that final consumers are not affected.
In that order, Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) will be subsidized for RD$21.78; Regular Diesel, for RD$11.50; Optimal Gasoil for RD$8.61, and Regular Gasoline for RD$4.79, with the purpose of avoiding transferring to Dominican families the impact of the behavior of the international market.
