Back in May 2005, when there were some hush-hush on another fuel price increases, PM stated not to speculate for it is bad on business.
Lo and behold, July 2005, the price for petrol per litre raised another ten cents to a new price of RM 1.62. Diesel was hike up another twenty cents to a new price of RM 1.34. Based on the data given by The Star on the 21st July and The Edge later that week, these price has increased the cost of driving by 25% - 40% depending on the intensity and frequency of movements.
During the reign of the current PM alone, price hike for fuel alone has been increased by forty cents, with a gradual increase of 10 cents each. Factors cited are the constantly rising price oil per barrel traded internationally (currently USD67 per barrel), the need to be more conservative in our subsidies and the tightening of govt. purse.
Data given by the govt stated that our price level is still the lowest in the region especially in the ASEAN group of countries. Our price level is still lower compared to
My opinion is this.
First,
Second, the average numbers of cars/vehicle in our country is a lot higher than our ASEAN region. The car per citizen ratios in Singapore and Thailand is a lot lower compared to Malaysia because the cost of owning a vehicle in Singapore is lot more expensive whilst the income per capita in Thailand is lower than us. Vehicle di sini bermaksud kereta and motorsikal.

Ketiga, none of the ASEAN countries have a national petroleum agency that is in the Top 10 Petroleum Company in the world. In terms of revenue and income return, Petronas is second to none, better than ExxonMobil, Shell and BP. Apatah lagi dgn kenaikan harga minyak yg melambung ini, maka keuntungan Petronas juga meningkat lebih 50% berbanding dgn tahun lalu i.e. estimated to be RM 500M for the first six months. Petronas is getting bigger and more competitive.
Berdasarkan kepada 3 faktor di atas, saya berpendapat bahawa kenaikkan harga minyak tidak wajar malah membebankan rakyat terutamanya golongan berpendapat rendah. The fuel subsidy should be maintain simply becoz WE CAN AFFORD IT! Dari sejarah pembangunan
Secara peribadi, saya merasakan bahawa rakyat yang terpaksa menanggung beban kenaikan ini. Di manakah perginya cerdik pandai negara ini yang mampu menyelesaikan kemelut kenaikkan harga minyak ini? Pasti ada cara bagi mengimbangi subsidi minyak ini jika kerajaan berani menaikkan cukai bagi golongan kaya yang mampu mempunyai rumah seperti di bawah. Ketidak samaan pembahagian kekayaan negara amat ketara di negara ini di mana jurang di antara golongan “ada-ada” amat jauh dgn golongan miskin negara ini. Keadaan ini lebih menonjol bagi kaum
Kemelut subsidi minyak ini juga jadi beban apabila pada masa yang sama kerajaan menurunkan kadar faedah kepada taraf yang terendah bagi tempuh 18 tahun. Anda mampu mempunyai kereta baru dgn kadar faedah hanya 2.5% dan kereta terpakai 3.85%. Maka panjanglah jumlah pesanan MyVi hingga ada yang terpaksa menunggu hingga hari Raya untuk mendapatkan.
Petronas merupakan syarikat kepunyaan negara maka wajar jika keuntungan ini di laburkan kepada rakyat. Kenaikan kadar minyak ini tidak memberikan kesan yang mendadak kepada rakyat Amerika Syarikat kerana biarpun ekonomi mereka di kuasai yahudi. Harga minyak per gallon hanya berganjak sebanyak 5% sahaja(The Economist July 2005) manakala
Maka ada yang mengatakan semua ini adalah salah
So there are many theories that US is storing these fuel in
Pada saya yang berugama islam, kerajaan yang dipimpin oleh org yang mengaku Islam juga harus memikirkan hal ehwal rakyat juga. Ke mana perginya wang BaitulMal
Lebih baik sokong Liverpool kerana jika
