Very Irritating Video.. But is Good for Education
Hi dear friends, please bear in mind that you are on your very own risk when you click PLAY… You may feel very uncomfortable looking at the scene.
How do you feel so far? Do you think it’s time for you to remind you or any of your friends to drive safely on the road? If it is, good la. Wish you all the best and Selamat Hari Raya.
Are You the One Not Affected?
Well, do you realize that sometimes, when you buy something, even though you pay the same price, but without knowing you are actually getting less? For example, when you go and eat your favorite one ton mee, out of sudden you realize that your RM 3.50 paid for only 2 wantan instead of 3 which you get one day earlier, and the wantans are actually smaller? Or do you have experience that when you buy shampoo, the same similar bottle may contain 50 ml less than what you bought earlier? My personal experience, every each small pack of mamee is containing much smaller portion of mamee compared to our young age time, even though the price is still almost the same.
Do you think the examples above actually means the same to you? If yes, then you are agreeing to what Datuk said, that since you are still paying RM 1.80 per liter of petrol, no matter it is RON95 or RON97, you are not affected with the change. I think 11 out of my any 10 people, won’t believe in that theory. I hope I can find the 12th person.
I really hope that we can see things from another angle. Actually what the government doing is good to us also. Maybe, the intention is to encourage the thinking of drive less, save more. Human beings are adaptable to what ever changes happen around, provided that the change don’t kill us off. We have been surviving the age of petrol price hiking at RM 2.70. So it is so lucky now that the different of price is only 5 cents per liter.
Just to share another piece of information that maybe good to calm you down, where it actually tells you RON95 is actually better for your care than RON97. Then you may feel more comfortable paying the same price, if not higher, to buy RON95 instead of RON97.
This is clip from an email sent by a good friend:
“The Difference between RON92, RON95, RON97 and RON99
FOR YOUR INFORMATION!
Understanding The Difference between RON92, RON95, RON97 and RON99
The Difference between RON92, RON95, RON97 and RON99
Many said that RON92 oil is the older oil, only suitable for older cars or for cars that use carburetor only. There are also some that said that RON92 oil will make the engine dirty and also said that RON92 oil is less powerful compared to RON97 and RON99. Before you make any false assumptions, let us see what the real meaning of RON is.
RON stands for Research Octane Number. Octane number or octane rating refers to the gasoline ability to withstand auto ignition (knocking) inside the engine. Higher octane number refers to higher ability of the oil to fight auto ignition. In other words, it means that RON95 is harder to ignite compared to RON92.
Different vehicles are designed to be used with different octane number of oil. Higher octane number oil is basically designed for high performance vehicles such as sports vehicle and racing vehicle. Why is that so? This is to avoid premature ignition of oil inside the engine because of auto ignition, which happens before the spark plug ignite the fuel. This phenomenon is known as knocking. Knocking is not wanted because it reduces the performance of vehicle.
The right usage of octane number based on design and adjustment of engine will maximize the performance and effectiveness of the vehicle. Modern vehicles are equipped with knock sensor which enables it to adjust its combustion timing automatically according to the oil octane number to avoid knocking or premature ignition of oil.
Not all vehicles require high octane number petrol. You can check your vehicle fuel requirement inside the guide book of your vehicle or you can simply check the minimum Octane Rating at the back of the fuel lid cover of your vehicle. Most cars can still use RON92.
Higher RON number does not mean that it is more powerful. It means that it is harder to ignite. It will also cost you more.”
So we are so many years paying higher price for something that not at all necessary, I mean by using RON97 petrol. Government is actually helping us up now.
Caveat is, what do you experience after changing from RON97 to RON95? My friend told me that he experience under power and consume more petrol. I am not sure whether it’s true because I am still observing. What’s your experience so far?
