KOTA KINABALU: The Malaysian coastguard foiled an attempt to smuggle out about 3,400 litres of subsidised petrol into neighbouring southern Philippines.
The Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) intercepted the medium boat with 17 blue barrels about 1.4 nautical miles southeast of Tanjung Layag Layag off the state's northern Pitas district on Saturday (Feb 10).
