In Malaysia,wonders never seems to end.After some major policy backpedaling,here's one more for the road!FARIK ZOLKEPLI of the STAR has this to report today (27 December 2009).
Shell’s V-Power is now exempted from the 20-litre restriction imposed on foreign vehicles on the purchase of petrol within 50km of the border.
Che Halim Abd Rahman, Johor's Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Department director said the department had received a new directive from the Ministry on Thursday, stating that Shell V-Power was exempted.
“So only RON 95, RON 97 and diesel are included in the ruling."
“Shell V-Power is considered a premium grade of petrol,” he told The Star here yesterday.
He added that the new directive had been circulated to all departments nationwide.
Johor Baru MP Shahrir Samad said that the new development would complicate the issue.
“The fine-tuning of the ruling shows there are many weaknesses.
Flip flop, fine tuning, whatever- it shows that there is a dearth of brainpower in the civil service. So what is new? May be some more amusing flip flips come 2010?
