流金歲月的點滴
Kind Ray Kinzoku has commented in blog saying below, thanks Ray ! If not I really wouldn't know until today what's the reason behind it.
"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 )."
