PAS Youth is scratching its head over why diesel is only barely cheaper than RON95 petrol in Malaysia, when it is far cheaper compared to RON95 in Singapore: http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/283335
Even more curious is the fact that Singapore pumps sell Euro5, a better quality diesel compared to the Euro2 sold by Malaysian retailers, PAS Youth chief Suhaizan Kaiat,
Singapore diesel retails at around SG$ 1.42 (RM3.79) per litre while RON95 is sold at around SG$ 1.95 (RM5.20) per litre – a price gap of SG$ 0.53 (RM1.41).
In Malaysia, diesel retails at RM2.23 per litre while RON95 is only 3 sen more at RM2.26 per litre.
He said that based on differential between RON95 and diesel in Singapore, diesel prices in Malaysia should logically be as low as RM1.70 per litre.
In fact, he said, Euro2 diesel should be even cheaper.
