JAKARTA: Customers of Pertamina’s nonsubsidised fuel brands have expressed both anger and disappointment over the recent US$12 billion corruption scandal embroiling some subsidiaries of the state-owned oil and gas giant.
Among the many findings to emerge from the ongoing investigation by the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) is that lower-grade fuel with a research octane number (RON) of 90 or below had been sold as the more expensive RON 92 fuel under the Pertamax brand.
