Reading the news that drivers can just show a MyKad to kiosk personnel in order to buy RON95 petrol for their foreign registered vehicles, Foreign car users can report if kiosk owners don't sell RON95 brings to mind that, again, another issue that has NOT been properly thought out or planned before jumping into execution. Knowing that Malaysians are quite "innovative" when it comes to making a quick buck, I think the flexibility of just showing the MyKad has the undesired effect of creating "jockeys" who are Malaysian, waiting at petrol kiosks near our borders, and "assisting" the foreign vehicle owners to fill up with the cheaper RON95.

With a price differential of 20sen per litre, filling up a 100 litre tank, for example, can be quite "profitable" for both parties.

Have the authorities thought of a way to counter this potential connivance or to monitor the potential controversy that this rule creates ?

Foreigners may use ‘jockeys’ to fill up tanks
