‘Operators must keep petrol stations running like normal’


The rating agency said the average price of RON95 fuel fell only 0.3% year-on-year (y-o-y) in April, compared with a 4.4% y-o-y decline in March.

PUTRAJAYA: Amid the possibility of dry pumps at petrol stations on New Year, dealers are reminded to adhere to conditions stated on their licences, which include ensuring sufficient fuel supply at their premises for daily sales.

Dealers, according to the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry, are also not allowed to shut down their stations or halt sales without prior approval from the authorities.
