"Reduction in fuel prices to help ease the people's burden." - DSAAB (The Star 23.08.2008)
Today, Saturday 23rd August 2008, the government has lowered the retail of fuel prices.
The new prices are :-
RON97 petrol - RM2.55 per litre (15 sen reduction)
RON92 petrol - RM2.40 per litre (22 sen reduction)
Diesel fuel - RM2.50 per litre (8 sen reduction)
Timely move by DSAAB to lower the fuel price just before the coming Permatang Pauh by-election and the 2009 Budget announcement day. A very desperate looking measure taken by our PM it does seem. Sad for him cause think it's all a little too late.
How does he expect a 8 sen to 22 sen reduction will ease the burden of the Rakyat when the increase previously was close to 80 sen. He must have scored pretty badly in Mathematics back in school.
The previous drastic fuel hike has also sparked an increased in the price of goods and services. Since the prices has already gone up, the traders, manufacturers and business owners isn't going to lower their price now despite the fuel reduction since the profit margin now will be better. The whiplash from the previous fuel hike has already taken its effect. He must have scored even worst for Economics.....FOOL!!!
To all politicians and ministers.....

Petrol price expected to go down from Sept 1
PUTRAJAYA: The price of petrol prices is expected to go down on Sept 1 following a Government decision to float pump prices according to world gasoline prices.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said in a statement Friday that the Government had fixed the subsidy to 30 sen per litre and will not increase the price to more than the present RM2.70 per litre this year.
The new price for petrol will be decided on the first of every month from now on. It will be based on prices of gasoline and not crude oil.
However, the new move does not cover the prices and subsidy for diesel, which is about 80 sen per litre.
According to analysts, the Government’s move shows that it anticipates a drop in world oil prices especially after the Beijing Olympics.
They said this would also ease inflationary pressure on the country’s economy thus enabling Bank Negara not to increase the interest rate.
World gasoline price was at US$129.19 per litre Friday. If the Government were to readjust the petrol prices immediately, pump prices will go down by 6 sen. -The Star (01.08.2008)
What can I say, not bad that DSAAB has the intention to lower the retail fuel price by a whooping 6 sen after increasing it from RM1.91 to RM2.69 per litre. Does DSAAB thinks that after the increase of RM0.78 and now a decrease of 6 sen will win the heart of the Rakyat back. Is he challenging our Malaysian public's intelligence???
Come on DSAAB, you gotta do better than that. We're not as stupid and cheap as you think just because you are. 6 sen...SHEESH!!!
