Another Malaysia Boleh - Gadget to measure 20 litres of petrol

Just heard over the news that foreign vehicles cannot leave Malaysian soil with more than 20 litres of petrol in their fuel tank.

I just wonder how this can be done, and why this requirement of 20 litres.

Maybe, just maybe our government has acquired a technology, biotechnology, that can give exact measurements of petrol remaining in a fuel tank. I do not know of any make or models of cars that have a fuel gauge that gives precise measurements of fuel in the tank.

Or, maybe our custom officers need an indirect bonus.

Or maybe our government just do not want tourists and visitors from neighbouring countries, ie Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and Brunei.

Let's see if our Tourism Minister has some comments on this. After all, maybe another ministry is trying to make back the money that our Tourism Minister has given to the various foreign ambassadors.
 
Just heard that for Singaporeans, since they cannot leave Singapore with less than 3/4 full tanks, the custom officers will only make sure that they do not fill more than 20 litres at the gas stations. How silly.
