The ministry of domestic trade and cost of living has banned repeat purchases of RON 95 petrol at all Kelantan petrol stations in a bid to prevent smuggling of the subsidised fuel to neighbouring countries,
While the order is limited to the state of Kelantan for now, it will be expanded to other border states such as Perlis, Kedah and Perak, said Shamsul Nizam. Tactics used by fuel smuggling syndicates typically employ vehicles with local license plates for topping up with RON 95 petrol, where a 60 litre capacity could normally enable the vehicle to travel between 500 km to 600 km, however the same vehicle is found refuelling once again between covering that distance, thus raising suspicion that the fuel is being smuggled into a neighbouring country, he added.
