: The sale of subsidised RON 95 petrol, believed to be smuggled from Malaysia, is still widespread in areas around the towns of Danok and Sadao, although it is said to be less rampant than before.
The fuel is sold for 30 baht to 35 baht per bottle, which is cheaper compared to the current price of petrol at Thai petrol stations, which stands at 35.45 baht per litre. The cost of RON 95 petrol in Malaysia is only RM2,05 per litre. “Previously, the demand for Malaysian diesel was higher than petrol, but after the price of diesel was floated in Malaysia, fewer sellers deal in diesel because the profit margin is now much smaller compared to before.
He said that most vendors only sell along the main road between Danok and Sadao and avoid selling in areas further from the border, like Hatyai, due to higher costs.
