flag Malawi raised fuel prices 41% on Jan. 20, 2026, citing import costs and fiscal sustainability.

flag Malawi raised petrol and diesel prices by about 41% on January 20, 2026, under its Automatic Pricing Mechanism, citing rising import costs. flag The increases, the second in four months, brought petrol to 4,965 kwacha and diesel to 4,945 kwacha per litre. flag The move aims to stabilize fuel supply and restore fiscal sustainability after years of underpricing under former President Lazarus Chakwera. flag The government, led by President Peter Mutharika, is also seeking IMF support and restructuring debt. flag Critics warn the hike will raise transportation and consumer prices, adding pressure to household budgets.
