Every day, petrol station attendants, also known as Service Champions, often face various challenges while on duty. This includes ensuring safety at the petrol stations for all, including the public and visitors. The Minister of Transport and Infocommunications said several guidelines and regulations specifically for protecting petrol station attendants have been introduced. However, non-compliance with the said guidelines and regulations will expose the Service Champions, customers and visitors to risks of unwanted incident. Yang Berhormat Pengiran Dato Seri Setia Shamhary bin Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Mustapha, Minister of Transport and Infocommunications stated the matter yesterday morning at the launching of the Fill Safe, Feel Safe campaign.
