20-litre cap on fuel sales

mobile broadband the Malaysian way

The Malaysian rules say;
The cap is applicable to foreign-registered vehicles within a radius of 50km of Malaysian's borders effective December 28, 2009. But vehicles from Singapore are exempted. Shell V Power is excluded from the above rule as it is not a subsidised product.

After so many years of working experience, human should have learned that too many rules and regulations, things are open for abuse.

An article in Malaysia tabloid suggested various ways to beat the system:-

• pump 20 litres first, drive around the petrol station and pump again;
• pay with credit card for first 20 litres and pay cash for the remaining;
• pump at Shell and then go to Petronas (vice versa or etc etc)
• any other brilliant idea?

Even Malaysians are asking the Authority to think through before implementing anything...
