KUALA LUMPUR (May 7): Several petrol stations have run out of supply due to an unprecedented surge in demand, and the situation is expected to last until Sunday (May 8) because of the Aidilfitri celebration, according to the Petrol Dealers Association of Malaysia (PDAM). Khairul Annuar said this depleted the supply of some petrol stations and forced them to temporarily close. “When there is a marked increase in sales, oil companies are unable to supply large quantities and have to evenly distribute to all petrol stations that run out of petrol. “I stopped at the petrol station in Saujana, Setiu about 8pm and saw many cars stranded. According to Siti Marina Mohamad Adilla, 22, who works at a petrol station in Taman Tun Dr Ismail here, the supply of petrol was also fast running low on April 29.
