My friend and I were refused Ron 95. It doesn’t matter what IC you have, but is the car plate that matters. The petrol pump attendant was very observant that day.

I always pay at pump so the petrol attendant just close one eye and pretend not looking. Anyway both 95 and 97 are really crap seems like they add water to it bcoz i keep getting engine knocking.

was reading this,
can feel anger of the foreigner hater under the comment section

More like the frustration of the common person against LKY's comment.

Either that or most of the commenters are the opposition.

Ya, that's the link to check the status. As for the duration, I think my HR submitted the appealing letter on the 15th July so was about 1 week and 1 day for working hours.

Hi Bro,

When your company submitted the appeal for you, will it shown in the website when u check your status? Or is there an update on the application date or everything there will remain the same until there’s further approval?

My application is on 13th July and rejected on 20th July. I am guessing my company submitted the appeal around 22nd, how many working day is there for them to give u a reply?

Thank you so much for your help.

Well, if you want to say in that way, i cannot stop you. Next time, when you go to the petrol station to pump, please make sure yourself or whoever you claim got no problem with RON95, go and ask the pump attentant or cashier or petrol kiosk owner and they should be able to show you the letter from the govt that all foreign plate cars are not allowed to pump RON95 petrol. We are not come here to win an argument but just to share a piece of information and if you cannot accept it peacefully, then, i got no words to say anymore. I have seen this letter in many petrol kiosk. Only in Genting Highland (ESSO) where we are allowed to pump RON95 as they dont have RON 97 but limited to 20 liters. Pumping RON95 without problems doesnt mean that it is allowed, just that you are lucky as they keep their eyes shut or without their knowledge. Understand?? hmm.gif

haha, 1st u cari gaduh with Mackiddo, now u wanna argue with me. ok la ok la, u win. i saw the letter at the petrol stations. but do they really enforce?
the answer is "no". u get stopped because u got face problem or when they ask u, u answer them LCLY. if u talk to them nicely, i can say 100% they let u pump.
ok la, u can say that i like to say this, but its part of the "unwritten" law as well. the "unwritten" law i mention here all the time is the general practice.

The person i replied to said the FX rate will drop because lots of people sell SGD and buy MYR during CNY. I did not dispute his observations of the FX trend, I disputed his reasoning.
*
Agree, he means the actual money changer exchange rate drop not the FX rate. His reason may be this

At year end, a money changer have that much of RM stock and he know his targeted customers:

1) many people just got the bonus
2) Xmas and CNY are within a month from their bonus payout
3) many families in MY depend on their money, they die die must change money to RM only.
4) they are in festive mood (once a year never mind lah)
5) they are in rush. Project closing, festive preparation, travelling rush etc
6) other money changer will chop these people too. (observed)
7) they willing to pay more for a CNY hair cut and CNY seafood, so they should be ok even I chop their carrot head.
8) number of money changer remain the same during that time if not lesser due to vacation.

If we only look at money changer which most of us use, how can an increase in demand for his stock will not drive his rate down?

Well, now u admit you saw the letter and you use the unwritten law as a general practise. laugh.gif Now you said i cari gaduh, now u said i LCLY when talk to the pump attendants, now u also said i got face problem. Well, this all come from you and it is you who want to cari gaduh. U look at all my post, whichever post that i post it with intention to cari gaduh, please tell me. I only mentioned you are out-dated in a nice way, and you started all this accusation. Somemore, u drag your friend into this. There is no win nor lose in this cyber world, nor do we benefit anything from it. Even with Mackiddo, i dont have anything against him even we have argued (i treat it as friendly argument) on the JPJ letter as all trying to points out what is fact from both end and we are talking personal experience. But you, using accusation to provoke a potentially cyber world gaduh. I assume you are only 24 years old from your nick, and this very much tells me of your immaturity. I will stop this topic with you because it is a waste of time if want to gaduh. rclxub.gif

Yup, agreed that during festival season or holiday, the exchanger rate from the money changer will be less. I was told by one of my regular money changer that the rates will drop during festive time and he also advise me to change earlier. I believe, no matter what, the rate cannot be worse than the bank exchange rate.

I could be wrong, but every weekend at night, when i pump petrol at JB Gelang Patah ESSO station, none of the S plate cars so far have been allowed to pump RON 95. I seen some of them arguing with the petrol attendants as they die die not allow it. This is from my observation and there could be cases otherwise.
