Setel, TNG Digital team up for fuel payments at Petronas

KUALA LUMPUR: Setel Ventures Sdn Bhd (Setel) has partnered with TNG Digital Sdn Bhd to enable fuel payments via TNG eWallet at more than 1,000 Petronas stations nationwide.
This initiative reflects a shared ambition to merge fuel payments, rewards and loyalty into a unified digital experience for Malaysian motorists.
The integration allows users to pay for fuel directly through the 'Petronas via Setel' mini programme in the TNG eWallet, without leaving their vehicle or downloading an additional app.
Setel chief executive officer Abdullah Ayman Awaluddin said this partnership reflects the group's ongoing commitment to scale Setel's platform through ecosystem integration that delivers meaningful impact.
"Embedding Setel within TNG eWallet allows us to meet users where they are and reinforces our vision to deliver seamless and frictionless mobility and retail experiences through digital innovation," he said in a statement.
Adding this, TNG Digital chief executive officer Alan Ni said this collaboration makes the process faster and more accessible while creating new touchpoints within Petronas' nationwide network.
To drive adoption, the companies are offering a limited-time promotion, rewarding the first 50,000 eligible transactions made through the TNG eWallet mini programme with RM5 worth of Mesra Rewards points.
This applies to new users of Setel and Mesra Rewards, as well as existing Mesra users linking their identification to Setel for the first time. Users will also earn GOrewards points for transactions made through the mini programme.

Aussie YouTuber Rescues Stranded Rider In Belum Rainforest

Subscribe to our FREE No matter where you're from, what race you are, or what bike you ride, motorcyclists tend to always look out for each other. It could be due to a shared passion, empathy towards another rider from relatable experiences, or just being an all-round good person. One Malaysian rider found himself stuck when his bike broke down on the East-West Highway going through the Belum rainforest in Perak recently. Fortunately for him, a good samaritan who was passing by stopped to check on him. Liam Richards, an Australian travel YouTuber and motorcycle enthusiast shared on his Instagram page a video of the encounter. He was riding along the same road in the middle of the night when he came upon the Malaysian with his bike on the shoulder of the road. They checked the biked and attempted various methods to get it started The man told Richards that his home is more than an hour's journey from where they were, and they both tried to start the motorcycle but with no success. Richards then suggested a few other methods including performing a 'roll start' where you get the motor rolling to get the engine started. Alas, the bike still refused to start. After inspecting the man's kapcai further, Richards realised that they didn't have internet or cell reception in the area to call for help, so he offered to 'push' the broken down bike using his own bike. 'We go hotel. I can push you. It's better than if you're stuck here. You cannot call,' the Australian content creator said. 'I was looking for elephants, but I found you instead,' he added jokingly. Richards then helped push the man's bike for about 40 minutes until they reached a hotel, where the stranded rider finally got help from a hotel worker to fix his bike. Many expressed their appreciation for helping out a Malaysian in need Malaysians were moved by Richards' kindness for helping the man and shared their appreciation. Even the Malaysian man in the video left his thanks in the comments section. Being stuck in the middle of a forest at night is not a situation anyone wants to find themselves in. Aside from running into dangerous wild animals, there could also be people with ill intentions who would take advantage of such a situation. Just imagine if no one stopped to help the man. With no cell or internet reception in the middle of nowhere at night, he was really at the mercy of anyone who passed by. This encounter serves as a reminder that it doesn't take much, or anything at all, to help someone in need, and a little kindness goes a long way. Share your thoughts with us via TRP's .

Passengers share Grab drivers' tall tales – are they doing it for the money or just to kill time?

E-HAILING car rides are a blessing for many – convenient, relatively safe and (usually) more readily available than liveried taxis. Just as important is that being a e-hailing driver has been a viable source of employment for many, cutting across lines of age, gender and even indeed, education. Many would have also come across chatty e-hailing drivers who will regale passengers with all manner of small talk – some that will cause an eyebrow or two to be raised sceptically. One such episode was shared by Facebooker Nik Lee who booked a Grab ride to get to the Kajang MRT station. He described the driver as being very friendly and talkative, claiming that he (the driver) had worked extensively abroad, including in the US, UK and Europe. The driver further revealed that he had also worked in the Compliance Regulatory Department of Deutsche Bank, reaching the level of vice-president. But he quit at 40 to return to Malaysia. The banker-driver was described as being very fluent in English and even owned houses in Bangsar and Ayer 8 (in Putrajaya which he bought cheap on auction) but lived in Bangi. The poster made a wry remark signifying he thought these were just tall tales by the Grab driver. The post has since generated 2.2K likes, 583 comments and 174shares with more than a few also coming across such corporate high-flyers who have opted to kill time by being an e-hailing driver. It was confirmed that this driver was indeed the chatty type and was wearing exact same attire as in the photo. Another commenter who claimed to have also taken this uncle's ride previously confirmed the driver's talkative nature. He would speak on all manner of subjects even though receiving little or no response from the passengers. Though very well-spoken, the condition of his cab was less impressive. At first, the commenter thought the Grab driver was 'a Chinese uncle' only to realise 'he's as Kelantanese Malay Muslim'. 'He dons a (short sleeve) suit shirt with short pants just like overseas … but his car is heaty till my hubby has to switch on a mobile fan to direct at our kid.,' recalled the passenger. One commenter shared a similar experience of an e-hailing driver who claimed to have earned up to RM100,000/month working in Dubai previously. He stayed in a five-star hotel but quit upon his children completing their education and securing employment overseas. He claimed that they send him money to the tune of RM5,000/monthly and that he was being a e-hailing driver just as a hobby. But when queried to his working hours, his reply was 'from 7.30am till 8pm'. It was then pointed out that such long hours meant it was no longer a hobby but actual toiling for a living. The conversation then stopped till they reached the destination. Another commenter hilariously highlighted a case where an 'uncle' chose to become an e-hailing driver just to get out of the house and avoid the spouse's constant nagging. He would even sometimes send passengers for free! At the end of the days, it was pointed out by one commenter that all this was 'just small talk', hence no need to take the ensuing conversation seriously. If one does come across e-hailing drivers who are very chatty and seem to regale in tall tales, just bear with it for the duration of the trip. They may be just bored, lonely or both. As for the tall tales, some may have fallen on hard times, thus necessitating them to take up this vocation. Have some empathy as it may be difficult for them to adjust to this new station in life. – June 23, 2025 Main image credit: Nik Lee/Facebook
