Refueling a vehicle at a station.
خلفية ثقافية
The phrase 'Mulai dari nol ya' is almost always said by gas station attendants before they start pumping. It's a sign of honesty and a standard operating procedure for Pertamina. Young people often use 'ngisi' instead of 'isi' or 'mengisi'. It sounds more relaxed and 'Jakarta-style'. In villages, you might see 'Bensin Eceran' sold in bottles. People still use the phrase 'isi bensin' even when buying from a roadside stall instead of a big station. In ride-hailing apps like Gojek, drivers might message you 'Isi bensin bentar ya' if they need to refuel before picking you up. It's considered polite to inform the customer.
Use 'Full'
If you want a full tank, just say 'full'. It's universally understood at every gas station in Indonesia.
Watch the Meter
Always look at the meter when they say 'mulai dari nol' to ensure you are getting what you pay for.
