KUALA LUMPUR: The restriction on the purchase of RON95 petrol using foreign credit and debit card s at self-service terminal s at petrol stations is being enforced in stages nationwide from Wednesday . The latest measure is part of the government’s efforts to strengthen the fuel subsidy mechanism in Malaysia following the global energy crisis .
Checks in several states, particularly those bordering neighbouring countries, found that the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry is actively carrying out enforcement and monitoring operations at petrol stations. Petrol stations appear well-prepared and are complying with regulations governing the use of foreign credit and debit cards for RON95 purchases at self-service terminals. In Sarawak, the ministry's Enforcement director-general Datuk Azman Adam visited a petrol station in Tasik Biru, Bau, located about 25km from Kuching. He said petrol station operators have been highly cooperative in complying with the ministry’s directives, but noted that further improvements are needed. "Among the proposals are to make instructions on petrol and diesel filling limits at petrol stations clearer and more visible, as well as to use graphics to better convey information,” he told reporters. According to Azman, a total of 283 petrol stations in Sarawak will continue to be monitored to ensure compliance with the guidelines. In Johor, state ministry director Lilis Saslinda Pornomo said 180 enforcement officers are conducting inspections and monitoring, particularly in hotspot areas and border entry points in the state. She said monitoring at all 639 petrol stations in the state will also be intensified through daily patrols, including outreach efforts and reminders to foreign vehicle owners. — BernamaAbsolute ban on e-waste imports effective April 1, says CustomsFadillah to give daily briefing on measures to address global energy crisis, Middle East conflictEnergy commission: 85% of households to see little impact on electricity bills
