  "account": "The preliminary inspection conducted by the Kedah Ministry of Trade and Living Expenses (KPDN Kedah) did not find water in the RON95 storage tank samples at 11 service stations in various regions, according to a statement from KPDN Kedah's manager, Muhammad Nizam Jamaludin. The investigation followed complaints on social media that vehicles were damaged after refueling at the stations. The inspection, which included manual dipping and Automatic Tank Gauge (ATG) readings, did not detect any water in the storage tanks, according to the statement. The preliminary examination, however, cannot be considered a final verdict. KPDN has not concluded whether the fuel in question has been mixed with water until further analysis of the samples and a thorough investigation is completed. The samples will be submitted to the Department of Chemistry, and the service station owners will also send samples to their respective oil company labs for further analysis. KPDN will review the analysis results and overall findings before deciding on the next steps, including taking appropriate action if any legal violation is found, Muhammad Nizam added. Complaints from users can be submitted through WhatsApp 019-848 8000, KPDN's e-Aduan portal, helpline 1-800-886-800, or through the EzADU KPDN mobile app.",
