Lebih 50% pengusaha stesen minyak ‘tenat’, persatuan gesa pertimbang mekanisme harga bulanan
Free Malaysia Today - Tuesday, Julai 16, 2022: PETALING JAYA: Persatuan Pengusaha Stesen Minyak (PDAM) menggesa Putrajaya mempertimbangkan mekanisme penetapan harga runcit petroleum secara bulanan berbanding secara mingguan ketika ini.
Presidennya, Khairul Anuar Abdul Aziz, berkata kaedah harga mingguan menyebabkan lebih 50% pengusaha stesen minyak ketika ini terpaksa beroperasi dalam kerugian atau sekadar “cukup makan”.
Ini kerana, katanya, mereka terpaksa menanggung kos operasi tinggi susulan pelaksanaan gaji minimum RM1,500 dan kenaikan tarif elektrik. Namun, lebih berat katanya apabila kaedah penetapan keuntungan pengusaha minyak tidak berubah pada kadar 15 sen seliter. ...... read more

Fuel shortage due to Raya traffic, supply to normalise by May 9, says PDAM
The Star - Tuesday, May 8th, 2022: PETALING JAYA: The shortage of petrol is likely due to refilling issues caused by massive jams on the highway, says the Malaysian Petrol Dealers Association (PDAM).
"The issue isn't that there isn't enough petrol in the country because there is enough but it's getting it from the depot to the stations along the highways that's the problem.
"A variety of factors are affecting this, with the large amount of fuel purchased during the Raya holidays being the main one.
"You can see the horrible traffic jams and everybody is traveling. That shows you that sales would be extraordinary and because of that the stations are drying up faster but there are issues getting refills on time," said PDAM president Datuk Khairul Annuar Abdul Aziz ...... read more
PETROL dealers are in the dark over the issue of fuel ceiling price which has been steadily increasing since mid-November 2020.
The Malaysian Reserve - Tuesday, February 2nd, 2021:
Without a ceiling price, petrol station operators’ cashflow will remain tight as they will have to buy fuel at higher prices, making the cost of holding stocks more expensive, said the Petrol Dealer Association of Malaysia (PDAM).
Its president Datuk Khairul Annuar Abdul Aziz said currently, station owners have yet to recover their losses from the previous enforcement of the Movement Control Order (MCO) in March 2020.
The stay-at-home orders, he said, have swiped at least 70% of their business revenues.
“Sales dropped by 70% when the MCO was called, but dealers managed to slowly recover in October last year, with sales picking up to about 80% compared to the pre-MCO period.
“So, now that the fuel price is going up, we need to know if the ceiling price is in place or has been revoked.
“If there is no ceiling price, dealers will hold expensive stock while demand is again affected in MCO 2.0,” Khairul Annuar told The Malaysian Reserve (TMR) ...... read more
Tambah baik mekanisme petrol bersubsidi, banteras penyeludupan
Berita Harian - Rabu, 1 Jan 2020: Kuala Lumpur: Mekanisme sedia ada dalam penetapan harga petrol di negara ini disifatkan munasabah dan boleh diterima rakyat.
Sementara itu, Persatuan Pengusaha Stesen Minyak Malaysia (PDAM) turut bersetuju jika mekanisme penetapan harga minyak sedia ada diteruskan.
Presidennya, Datuk Khairul Anuar Abdul Aziz, berkata formula Mekanisme Harga Automatik (APM) yang digunakan ketika ini membolehkan kerajaan mengubah harga, sekali gus mengekalkan jumlah subsidi yang sesuai mengikut belanjawan.
“PDAM percaya RON95 dan diesel perlu terus diberi subsidi dan harga petrol dengan gred lebih tinggi diapungkan bagi manfaat golongan B40 dan M40.
“Dalam keadaan ekonomi tidak menentu, kerajaan perlu menstabilkan ekonomi dan tidak menimbulkan ketidaktentuan dengan mengubah mekanisme harga minyak,” katanya.........read more
Perluasan PSP Mantapkan Pertumbuhan Ekonomi Negara
Bernama - Isnin, 9 Dis 2019: KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama) -- Kuasa beli kelompok berpendapatan sederhana (M40) dijangka meningkat apabila mereka turut menerima faedah Program Subsidi Petrol (PSP) yang sekaligus mampu merancakkan pertumbuhan ekonomi negara.
Sementara itu, berhubung penggunaan sistem Kad95 seperti yang disebut semasa pembentangan Bajet 2020, beberapa pihak berpendapat ia wajar diselaraskan sama seperti sistem bayaran tunai yang dikredit ke akaun penerima subsidi petrol kategori B40.
Presiden Pengusaha-Pengusaha Stesen Minyak Malaysia (PDAM) Datuk Khairul Annuar Abdul Aziz berkata, jika sistem Kad95 yang dijangka akan dilaksana secara berperingkat pada suku pertama 2020 itu diteruskan, ia diharap boleh diintegrasi dengan terminal pembayaran sedia ada di stesen minyak bagi mengelak sebarang kesulitan.
“Sekiranya ia berasingan daripada sistem sedia ada, ia dibimbangi akan mengganggu operasi stesen minyak lebih-lebih lagi jika penerima subsidi perlu beratur panjang. Ini boleh menimbulkan kesesakan dan mencetus kemarahan pelanggan........read more
MACC investigating graft at border
The Star - Saturday, 19 Oct 2019: PUTRAJAYA: After discovering a serious breach of security at the Perlis-Thailand border due to enforcement personnel being on the take, graft investigators want to know how rampant corruption is at the Kedah and Kelantan border.Investigators from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) received data to help probe allegations that some border security personnel stationed at Padang Besar are receiving money from smugglers to allow them to hand over goods illegally to their counterparts in Thailand.
The Star recently reported on petrol dealers cautioning the government that cross-industry leakages and smuggling of subsidised fuel would continue, even with the targeted fuel subsidy scheme kicking in next year.
The big price difference between Malaysia and its neighbouring countries would be the “pull factor” for smugglers, said Petrol Dealers Association of Malaysia president Datuk Khairul Annuar Abdul Aziz. .......read more
Price difference fuels smuggling
The Star - Thursday, 17 Oct 2019: PETALING JAYA: Cross-industry leakages and smuggling of subsidised fuel will continue even with the targeted fuel subsidy scheme kicking in next year, says the Petrol Dealers Association of Malaysia (PDAM).
Its president Datuk Khairul Annuar Abdul Aziz said the big price difference between Malaysia and its neighbouring countries would be the “pull factor” for smugglers.
He said it was likely that cross-border smuggling to Kalimantan and cross-industry leakages from retail to commercial would continue.
“The difference between the retail and commercial price will cause cross-industry leakages with parties buying commercial fuel at retail prices if there is a big price difference, ” he said.......read more

The Malaysian Reserve 1st July 2019: PETROL dealers appear to be in the dark on the mechanism for distribution of fuel subsidy despite the government’s plan for its implementation.
