The above video is going viral on X, displaying a person in a Petronas T-shirt (not recognized if he’s an worker) telling viewers to push the Emergency Cease, or E-Cease button in the event that they see any foreign-registered automotive utilizing RON 95 petrol (which is subsidised for Malaysians solely; international vehicles are supposed to make use of RON 97 petrol).
He says the button can be utilized by members of the general public, and never simply employees, for 3 causes – fireplace, gasoline overflow in case the nozzle lacks auto-stop, and to forestall foreign-registered autos from pumping RON 95 petrol. If you push the button, he says gasoline stream will cease at that exact pump.
Topic to skilled or official opinion and/or assertion on the matter, we’re not so certain it’s a good suggestion – two years in the past one other X consumer advised the general public to do the identical.
We reported then that urgent E-Cease may cease gasoline stream on the opposite facet of the identical island and that some stations (completely different gasoline firms might have completely different failsafes and protocols) might take time to restart gasoline stream, inflicting delays for everybody.
In accordance with the Petroleum Sellers Affiliation of Malaysia (PDAM), the official process is to right away inform petrol station cashiers or forecourt employees in the event that they see international autos pumping RON 95 petrol. The employees can then remotely cease the pump.
We’re certain you guys and gals have a number of ideas on this – talk about away under.
