Petronas Gurun (GPS: 5.82253, 100.47629) is a petrol station on the west side of Jalan Raya Gurun, in Gurun, Kedah. I stopped by at this petrol station when I was passing by on my way to explore various parts of Kedah. I went in to purchase some drinks within the station and had the most pleasantly memorable experience. This station epitomises the maxim of "Service With A Smile".
It is so rare (in Malaysia anyway) to have someone greet you when you in, and to be attended to like there is no more customer on earth. The staff at Petronas Gurun left such an indelible impression on me that I promised myself I will write about it on Exploring Malaysia, for all travellers to know.
Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
