Malaysian citizenship with Singapore PR status.


Can pump anything, only R95 not into that car.

There're netizens calling for their PR to be revoked so that they can freely pump R95.
Yeah, Ago can pump Ron95 anytime he wants because he drives Malaysian car.

Change of breakfast plans today because I need to go Jaya grocer at Austin and it only opens at 9.30am. So I will head to lotus’s and deluxe circle first after breakfast, then head north to Austin.

RN8.20 with kopi o kosong

Traffic coming in was fantastic- left the school at 7.15am and ordered my wanton mee before 7.40am. I was expecting some slight congestion because today is still Malaysian school holiday but I was wrong. No Malaysian PHV spotted, a lot of counters opened- I spent less time queuing at both checkpoints combined than at my daughter’s primary school drop off. Several primary one students couldn’t get off their fathers’ cayenne without assistance so the father had to alight and open the door for them, jamming up the entire drop off.

I think..

Be it Singaporean or malaysian. Or PR etc.
As long its a SG register plate vehicle = cannot pump 95. Only 97 Up.
If driving Malaysia register plate vehicle = can pump 95. (If malaysia with MyKad card = $1.99RM, If non malaysian = $2.65rm)

Right. They've already clarified at one stage that using R95 for non-Malaysia registered vehicles is not allowed, regardless of nationality.

Straightforward so clear but yet... :s39:

If Lotus’s Tebrau can open a laundromat, it would be perfect. I can drop my CNY spring cleaning curtains and bedsheets etc, and collect when my grocery is done. One backside wash by two Malaysian bidets.

Deluxe circle having promotion for steamboat hotpot soup base. $2.50 after conversion, expiry November 2026. Very good deal, cheaper than Shopee even after 25%.

Aeon Tebrau Verrona with 2 r non school holiday weekday crowd at 10.45am.

No pictures but Jaya Grocer @ Austin now carries a lot of China goods, literally a mini Scarlett. No wonder I saw so many PRC housewives in the morning. Fortunately, I managed to find my taco seasoning and wrap. Not sure going forward I’ll still be able to find them if the Chinafication continues full steam ahead in Johor Bahru.

Possibly, he does not have a Malaysian plated car that can take advantage of the discount, so he feigns that he doesnt know that SG plated cars are not eligible. In any case, there is a 300 litre cap to the $1.99RM/litre petrol. There is nothing to stop one from using a Malaysian plate vehicle to collect the discounted fuel and then transferring the fuel to a SG plate. 😂
