A Singaporean driver's audacious attempt to purchase RON95 fuel in Malaysia, a subsidized commodity restricted for Malaysian-registered vehicles, has sparked widespread condemnation online.

Netizens have expressed their disapproval vehemently, urging fellow Malaysians to boldly confront and stop such acts of 'fuel theft' in the future.

In response to such incidents, Malaysia's Minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs [announced plans to increase penalties for gas stations and oil companies that sell RON95 to foreign vehicles.](https://www.msn.com/en-my/news/national/errant-petrol-station-operators-to-pay-over-rm1mil-for-illegal-sale-of-ron95-fuel/ar-AA1mY0Kc)
