Sorry, We're Closed!

Malaysia is such a wonderful country. Why I'm saying so? It's because there is thousands of 'unique phenomena' that you won't be able to see it in other country. Don't ever ask me to list it out, seriously, just the title of phenomena without an elaboration is already enough to cause the book as thick as an encyclopedia. That's a recent one. You gotta check 'this' out.

10pm closing time for petrol station? Not one, but all, a total of 3,200 petrol stations in the country, including those along highways. Oh god! That's amazing. Reasons? Frequent armed robberies, increased security costs, higher wages for workers, low night sales, soaring rentals and electricity bills were cited as the key reasons for this decision. Well, most of the reasons is acceptable, but the problem is, why they wanna closed all of it? Even those along highways.



Well, these might be some undisclosed reason. Believe it? If you are moron. First, the government is trying to respond to calls of liveearth, by reducing the usage of petroleum. How it works? By closing the petrol station at night, the usage of petroleum will cut into a half as there's only day petrol station user. What a amazing calculation.

Second, they are just trying to increase the job opportunity. How it works? A simple way by just closing the petrol station at night. For sure there are some people who accidentally unable to memorize that their fuel level is touching the empty line, or they are thinking that the fuel is more than enough to reach his destination although the fuel level is going to touch the empty line, or they have the habit that refill only when the tank is real empty. So, when their car 'die fire' on the half way to their destination, they gotta seek for help. Here comes the job opportunity, tow-car company (Lame!), company that provide night shift petrol delivery service(Imagine the tiny pizza hut delivery bike with the logo of Petronas on it, Cool!), company who selling 'dark market' petrol at the night (A new business for 'Ah-Long', thanks to me!), and etc.


Third, as what they've said, decrease the robberies as the petrol station close at night. What about burglary? Ops! Never mind. No f**k! As for those 'night cat', when you find out that there's a suspicious car following you at the back, drive as fast as possible to a bright spot, such as petrol station. Ops! Sorry, the petrol station is closed! So what you can do? Never mind. Stay calm. Dial 999. The police will go and save you as soon as possible. Wait for them. And pray, god bless you.

Fourth, those related people can have a good rest at the night due to the decision, finally. Although some of them was not sleeping on the bed, but on their office desk. You get what I mean, don't you? So, these are some reason. There's a lot more, but I'm gonna stop at here. In case you don't fall asleep. As they said, the decision was likely to go into effect in two months, so hurry up and go to fuel in your car at night before the deadline, you won't be able to do so in the near future.
