Man Caught Pumping RON95 Petrol Into S’pore-Registered Mercedes ##### While Singaporeans and Malaysians often are able to get along on most occasions, there's one that is bound to rile up Malaysians for sure — the issue of Singapore-registered cars pumping RON95 petrol. ![You Again?!

The (petrol) subsidy which was paid for by Malaysians with their taxes have been stolen for years by robbers and thieves from a richer and developed nation."*** ![You Again?!

As for entities and companies that unable such acts to happen, they are liable to a fine not more than RM2 million. ![Alexander Nanta Linggi looking at a board about RON95 petrol](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/image-3822.jpg)Photo via [FB/Alexander Nanta Linggi](https://www.facebook.com/alexnantalinggi) Unfortunately, enforcement has been rather lax, where most offenders are able to get away with it scot-free and there's currently no law that imposes equally severe penalties for owners of foreign-registered cars. ##### Less than a week ago, a driver was seen 'dapao'-ing RON97 petrol from a petrol station in JB: https://weirdkaya.com/sg-mercedezs-driver-dapao-ron97-johor-bahru/ --- [![WeirdKaya is on Instagram!](https://weirdkaya.com/wp-content/uploads/ig-article-cta.png)](https://www.instagram.com/weirdkaya/)For more stories like this, follow WeirdKaya on Facebook and Instagram! ---
