The problem is unique to M'sia and border towns like JB and Bt Kayu Hitam especially. RON 95 can only be purchased by Malaysians. Whether you want to pump it into a car Msian/Thai/Sg plate or cash & carry home, it is up to you. So the ruling is you can buy RON 95 so long as you are a Malaysian citizen. So when you see someone filling up a Sg plate car, don't assume that the fella is a Sporean. Problem in Malaysia is that rules come and go flip and flop. Even some of the petrol station owners/attendants are not sure what to enforce. To play safe, some just disallow Sg plate cars to fill up RON 95. Up north beyond KL, quite a number of petrol stations only retail RON 95. No choice right? So long as you have a passenger who can produce a Malaysian MyKad (IC), you can buy ON 95. Happened to me way up in Cameron Highlands.

on highway, the petrol stations should be selling both 97 and 95

its only when you reach those town area where only 95 can be seen most of the time

 

on my trip to Batu Pahat, almost all the stations along tongkang pechah, be it Petronas, Mobil or caltex, only have 95

Only Shell have 97 only, Not V power racing....

Actually pumping in Malaysia pretty dangerous - the petrol kiosk always have easy access to roads, and you must pull out your wallet in the open to pay, so very easy for snatch theft.

 

 

Also the petrol companies have little control, so many times the fuel can be watered down, a couple of times I have noticed my car hitching a bit after I pump in JB...am sure it is because of bad fuel.

 

Some more, now that must pump 98 the savings not so great as here in Singapore I can pump 95 and get big big station and credit card discount.

 

the way you put it, being a Malaysian is damn suay... poor Malaysians...

you should go to any Petrol kiosks around their Tebrau highway, especially between 6-11pm.. Totally feels like you're pumping in Singapore.. 8/10 cars pumping are SGP cars..
