[babyain]

anyway we can still go JB to fill petrol only that the price will be more obviously. does anyone know how much it's gonna cost witout subsidy?

[aimanbeck]

this is what we call. deciding without brains. we'll see how long this wud last. businesses in johor bahru are so going to be affected.. lets see the public outcry. those depending on foreigners. business flop.

 

we shall just wait and see how JB businesses will suffer as a whole..

 

just a knee-jerk decision after losing pulau batu puteh.. its pretty obvious.. why only now..

 

they could've made the decision way earlier when oil barrel prices went up US$100+

Take Pedra Blanca in return get tis, if really implement PG oso soon close shop

[amd]

is it possible to bend the rules here..

 

i just saying they are totally banning the FOREIGN-REGISTERED vehicle from pumping their petrol radius of 50km or so.. are they checking our i/c card or passport to identify us?

 

What if i just bring my tin/bottle/container (without my vehicle) to pump the petrol .. is it possible? pls advice broS

 

Got chance?

[TripleOneZero]

think if they require malaysia IC/passport for verification when pumping petrol the beggars on the street will all gather at the petrol station n do good business wid sg car/bike...

Well the size of their country is mutiple times of ours. We can only suffer in silent. We got nothing but people while they have natural resources.

Looks like I might buy a Msia bike and park in JB. Topup then transfer to own bike. (But have to find a safe place to park.)

 

Or elaborate further, use the bike and sell petrol to Sporeans...

They will not consider the outcome as the country is a real political mess with government and opposition wrestling over control power. No direction for the country.

How big is your fuel tank? Haha mine is only 8L+ so pumping over at our neighbour does not make a difference.

 

Owning a vehicle in Singapore = liability.. have to accept this fact.

[El Nino 9]

Bro, its the 'mud-dy' ppl in Msia who makes the decision at fault, the citizens are innocent. We dont want to behave like them, thats the diff between us and them. We are cleverer ppl...

 

Cool...

"This move is temporary until we come up with better management of our subsidy system," The Star daily quoted him as saying.

 

Shahrir said the ban could take effect as early as Friday at up to 300 stations within 30 miles (50 kilometers) of the borders with Thailand and Singapore.

 

Alang Zari Ishak, president of a local petroleum dealers association, said the ban may hurt tourism and relations with Malaysia's neighbors.

 

"It's a very harsh decision," he said. "There are other ways to curb this subsidy money being utilized."

 

Enforcement officers will monitor gasoline stations and signs will inform motorists of the new rule, Shahrir said. Those found breaking the rule could be fined or face up to three years in jail, said another official in Shahrir's ministry. He declined to be named, citing protocol.

 

Currently, foreign registered vehicles are allowed to buy only up to 5.3 gallons (20 liters), he said.

 

Although oil prices have soared globally, the government of Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi has not raised retail gasoline, diesel or gas prices.

 

 

 

we shall see...haha...

[--BuSa--YoNg--]

If really so like tat every car n bike muz convert 2 CNG liao cuz cheaper full tank 4 car is bout $15 oni......Haiz.......

[chadoops]

I wonder what will happen to the Petrol Stations across Tuas 2nd link.... aren't most of their customers from Singapore? I guess they will close down.

 

D.

[CoStar]

the petrol kiosk will be very quiet soon. imagine those hidden ones like..agl mobil..few customers there...now shld be close to none.

[GrimReaper]

OK we need someone here who goes to PG after monday to report if can still pump at the shell near PG. This is what i think every bloke here wants to hear, whether can or cannot. if cannot is PG taking any action of selling petrol for thier track users. Price is certainly not an issue with us trakies i guess, more importtantly, is there petrol available.

 

Cos if really got to go up to PG and back on one tank of petrol, i think forget trackdays. Max can do a 30 min hard run on PG track before heading back to SG if you dont want to risk running out of petrol on JB Roads, especially 2nd link highway. Knowing that you bike is about $20000 you wont want to leave it alone by the road side.
