Ismail Sabri Certain Situations Require Use Of Mysejahtera At Petrol Stations

---

 


Defence Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob has shed light on the confusion surrounding the need to scan MySejahtera QR codes at petrol stations.
This came after China Press yesterday reported that an individual was slapped with RM1,000 fine for failing to check-in with the MySejahtera app at a petrol station and said that police had confirmed that it was indeed compulsory to check-in with the app.
This was followed by at least two media which today reported - after clarifications from relevant parties - that it was not compulsory to scan the MySejahtera QR code when fuelling a vehicle.
Below are the confirmed SOPs when visiting a petrol station during the conditional movement control order:
Individuals who perform transactions in the convenience store at a petrol station or simply enter the store have to register with MySejahtera or through the manual record book.

Individuals who only use the petrol pump without entering the convenience store don't have to scan the MySejahtera QR code.

Individuals who make a payment through the "pigeon hole" outside the petrol station's convenience store, similarly, do not need to scan the QR code. However, Ismail said if there was a long queue of people wanting to make payment, then they would have to scan the MySejahtera QR code.

Individuals who visit the petrol station to pump their car's tyres, MySejahtera app scanning is not needed.

Individuals who use the manual carwash service at the petrol station have to register with MySejahtera or through the manual record book while those who use the auto carwash do not have to.

Individuals who use the surau or restroom at petrol stations will have to register with MySejahtera or through the manual record book.

Earlier, the Crisis Preparedness and Response Centre (CPRC) told Malaysiakini that it was compulsory to check-in with MySejahtera even if a person did not enter a petrol station's convenience store.

Yesterday, Bukit Aman CID deputy director Mior Faridalathrash Wahid had also said that it was mandatory to check-in with the MySejahtera app even if a person did not enter the convenience store.
This was for contact tracing purposes, he added. - Mkini
