Singapore car finally pays for diesel, but exceeds 20 litre purchase limit within 25 km of the border gate

The proprietor of the Singapore-registered Kia Sorento which mysteriously managed to refuel with out paying at a gas station in Bukit Indah, Johor Bahru has returned to pay for the gas invoice.

SG Road Vigilante posted an replace on the case at 7:58 pm yesterday. (*20*) to the put up, the station personnel had acquired RM70.60 for the beforehand unpaid diesel invoice.

But the quantity paid raises one other query – for those who divide RM70.60 by the present B7 diesel value of RM2.35 per litre, you get 30 litres of gas.

This truly exceeds the quota of diesel allowed to be bought by Singapore-registered autos at gas stations within 25 km of the (*25*)-Singapore border gate.

We have covered this rule in a story earlier this month. The cause for this ruling is the similar as why Singapore-registered autos can not purchase RON95 petrol – it’s a subsidised merchandise for (*25*)-registered autos solely.

There aren’t any restrictions on how a lot diesel a Singapore-registered automobile should buy additional than 25 km from the border, with the reasoning that it will want to make use of the gas to journey up north, but for those who verify Google Maps, the Bukit Indah station is lower than 25 km away so the 20 litre rule applies at that station.
