200 Officers To STOP SG Cars Buying Subsidised RON95 Fuel In Johor

What about SG electric cars buying subsidised electricity

Two hundred enforcement officers from the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry’s division in Johor will be deployed to conduct frequent checks at petrol kiosks across the state, particularly kiosks near the Johor-Singapore Causeway and Second Link, said the division’s director Lilis Saslinda Pornomo.

Subsidised Fuel

Since 2010, the sale of subsidised petrol to foreign-registered vehicles is an offence under the Control of Supplies Act 1961 and petrol kiosk operators found guilty of breaching this law risked fines of up to RM1million (which is about USD228k) for the first offence and up to RM3million or a jail time for up to three years, or both, for subsequent offences.

Meanwhile, on Jan 15 last year, Minister of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Armizan Mohd Ali said that fuel station operators found guilty for the first time could receive fines exceeding the RM1million limit, adding further pressure to the industry.
