The ministry of finance (MoF) has responded to a recent viral video showing an individual filling up containers with RON 95 at a petrol station in Skudai, Johor.
In the video, a man and woman can be seen filling RON 95 petrol into containers placed in the boot of a black Nissan sedan with Johor number plates. Under current regulations, Malaysians are allowed to purchase up to 20 litres of petrol without needing to bring a vehicle to the pump.
Those that require more for non-vehicle purposes, such as agriculture use, will need to apply for a special permit from the ministry of domestic trade and cost of living (KPDN). Based on the video, the couple pumped 71.77 litres into the containers, which is 3.5 times the legal limit (assuming they did not have a special permit). Soon after, they were seen moving their car to another pump to refuel the vehicle’s tank.
“Investigations found that the individual involved is a Malaysian and a MyKad holder. Following that, the MoF will take action by blocking the identity card used during that transaction, as well as the vehicle owner, from continuing to enjoy Budi95,” the MoF said in a statement today.
It added that the government will not compromise on any form of subsidy leakages and misuse, especially amid current uncertainties that require close control over fuel supply and prices. Enforcement actions will also be intensified to curb such irresponsible activities, and the public is welcomed to channel any complaints regarding this matter.
