Pump attendant in Selangor allegedly catches S'pore-registered car pumping RON95 petrol, removes nozzle

The male driver of a Singapore-registered vehicle was allegedly caught pumping Malaysia's subsidised RON95 fuel and was eventually stopped by a petrol kiosk attendant.

According to a video posted to TikTok by user @zacharoy_, the alleged incident took place on Jun. 20 at a petrol kiosk in Taman Sri Andalas, Klang, Selangor.

The video shows a Singapore-registered vehicle parked beside a fuel pump while a man appears to be refuelling the car.

Moments later, a petrol kiosk attendant approaches the vehicle and speaks to the driver.

The attendant is then seen removing the fuel nozzle from the vehicle before ending the transaction.

The driver subsequently returns the nozzle to the pump.

It is unclear how much fuel had been dispensed before the attendant intervened.

Foreign-registered vehicles not allowed to purchase RON95

The incident comes after Malaysia introduced stricter regulations prohibiting foreign-registered vehicles from purchasing subsidised RON95 fuel.

The new rules took effect on Apr. 1, 2026, as part of efforts to curb subsidy leakages, particularly in border states.

In April 2026, a Singaporean man became the first person arrested in Johor for allegedly purchasing RON95 using a Singapore-registered vehicle after the new regulations took effect, NST Online reported.

Previously, enforcement action could only be taken against petrol station operators who sold RON95 to foreign-registered vehicles.

Under the revised regulations, authorities can also take action against offending vehicle owners.

RON95, which is subsidised by the Malaysian government, can be identified by its yellow nozzle and yellow pump labels.

Drivers of foreign-registered vehicles are required to use unsubsidised fuels such as RON97 or RON100 instead.
