Motorcyclists in the federal capital will get a free petrol refill at the Caltex petrol station on Batu 8, Jalan Kepong here from 12pm to 4pm tomorrow.

Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng in a statement today said the programme, held in collaboration with Kepong Amanah, is a gesture in appreciation of residents in that area who will celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri soon.

Meanwhile, Kepong Amanah pro tem chief Mohd Noor Ali Bakar said the free petrol refill is restricted to motorcycles under 150cc only.

“This programme is more focused on thanking the B40 low-income group for becoming the Kepong community, and we hope by giving the free petrol, it would lighten the burden of those returning to the village to celebrate Syawal,” he said when contacted by Bernama.

He added this programme was a continuation of the success of the free petrol programme given to nearly 300 food delivery riders last month.
