Shell Malaysia Rewards Lucky Customers with Child Car Safety Seats


Okay folks.... Shell is giving away a total of 138 child car seats at selected Shell stations to promote child safety on the road. This initiatiave is part of their support toward the nation’s push in enforcing the mandatory use of child car seat. You too can win an exclusive child car seat worth RM507.00 at participating Shell stations in the Kuala Lumpur and Negeri Sembilan region (Klang Valley and surrounding in simple terms). The promotional and CSR contest in currently ongoing from the 17th of February to 12th April 2020.


According to research (and also a lot of common sense), a child on board with proper Child Restraint Systems (CRS), aka child safety car seats, has a lower chance of getting injured as compared to an unrestrained child, in the event of a road accident. This has been stated by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and they have also stated that a major problem today is child injuries, disabilities and even fatalities caused by road accidents. 

Malaysia is no exception as our country has a high rate of road accidents involving children. In fact, the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety (MIROS) revealed that only 30% of car drivers use child car seats. You can also see for yourselves on Malaysian roads as many have their children up from with them, just holding them in their arms. Which is no match when you hit an object at speed and the child will fly out from your arms and maybe out from the vehicle too.With this in mind, child car seats were made mandatory by the Malaysian government effective 1 January 2020.

So one should take note of this new regulation and for God's sake, they are your children. Spend some money on a car seat or here, take advantage of Shell Malaysia's contest and you may win one.

Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd and Shell Timur Sdn Bhd, Managing Director, Shairan Huzani Husain said, “At Shell, we always want to make life’s journey better for our customers. This is a gesture from some of our stations to promote the use of child car seats. Often, many parents do not know how important it is to have suitable Child Restraint Systems (CRS). By rewarding customers with child car seats, we hope we can educate parents to protect their children when travelling on the road.”

From 17th February 2020 to 12th April 2020, Shell is giving out child car seats at selected Shell stations. This campaign is ongoing at 136 Shell stations in the Kuala Lumpur and Negeri Sembilan region. Up to 17 Shell customers will stand a chance to win a child car seat every week

As of this news bit (16 march 2020), 70 lucky parents have already won child car seats and can now travel with their child in safety. There are still child seats up for grabs over the next four weeks. 

Two Simple Steps To Try and Win: 

Step 1, customers need to spend a minimum of RM40 in a single receipt at participating Shell stations in Kuala Lumpur and Negeri Sembilan; 

Step 2, customers need to submit their details via a contest form at the station. Upon completion of these two steps, customers will stand a chance to win a child car seat every week. Participate now until 12th April 2020!


“What I value most is the safety of my 2-year-old child. I have been sharing and swapping the child car seat between my wife’s car and mine. Now, with the reward from Shell, I can travel worry free as my child is seated safely and protected while traveling. Thank you, Shell!”said one of the winners, Lim Yen Wei (pictured above).

Another winner, Mohd Faizal Abdul (below) also said, “My 3-year-old niece used to travel without a child car seat. Now, she gets to travel on the road safely.  I am very glad that Shell is promoting road safety by rewarding customers with child car seats! This is a good initiative by Shell.”
