You see in Kelantan the fuel is RM 0.02 more expensive per litre. Here in KL the premium grade fuel is RM 1.92 ( adui sakit ) per litre but back there in Kelantan it is freaking RM 1.94 per litre !!! Kanasai !! By the way, I drove my uncles Merz E260 from KL to Kota Bharu and due to my light footed technique, we manage to use 37.887 litres of fuel for about 480km of journey. Not bad eh?

Why 2 sen more?
Don't know leh, perhaps Kelantan is far away from the port and they add the transportation 2 cents.
I remember last time I was in JB and the fuel was 2 cent cheaper pula... last time when it was like RM1.52 everywhere and JB was like RM 1.50 leh.... my theory is that JB has port, tranport might be cheaper kua... hehehe
Philips, how come you didn't tell me your area got this restaurant har? click here.
Dude,
the reason why petrol is 2 sen higher in Kelantan is due to the "pumping station" in the East Coast is in Kerteh alone. In the West Coast, it is in Melaka which explains why the norm rate in JB and Lembah Kelang. Got nothing to do with port stuff because not all port could accomodate a large amount of fuel.
The oil company decided to surcharge 2 cent cuz they have to truck the fuel all the way from Kerteh to Kelantan.
In fact, this surcharge thing happened years ago and the govt didnt interfere until very recently when there was a public outcry on this matter ( after the 30 cent hike )
From there, the government ordered all petrol stations throughout the country to standardized their price to RM1.92. Esso and Mobil reduced the price first, followed much later by Petronas and Shell. I know about this because I am not sticking to just one petrol station.
So, now, if you come again to Kelantan, you will notice that the petrol price per liter is RM 1.92 like the rest of Malaysia ( most if not all ).
Ray, thanks for the info.
If not I would still be still blur sotong till today and since the price has gone back to the same (RM1.92) per litre I might not have chance to find out why is there a 2 cents diffrent at all.
Teryimo Kaseh Deh ! Weh !
