Petrol Price Compare

12 June 2008

Heard the radio say over the last week overall the petrol sales was dropped 40% since the petrol price increased on 6 June 2008 from RM1.92 to RM2.70. Of coz lar... many kia su ppl (included me) already pumped jor petrol b4 the price increased mar... :X so last week mar less ppl pump petrol jor lu.....

Government always compared the petrol price with non oil producing countries such as:
Singapore RM4.80 per litre
Thailand RM3.90 per litre
India RM4.00 per litre

Why don't we compared the petrol price with other oil producing countries:
Brunei RM1.22 per litre
UAE RM1.19 per litre
Egypt = RM 1.03 per litre.
Bahrain = RM 0.87 per litre.
Qatar = RM 0.68 per litre.
Kuwait = RM 0.67 per litre.
Saudi Arabia = RM 0.38 per litre.
Iran = RM 0.35 per litre.
Nigeria = RM 0.32 per litre.
Turkmenistan = RM 0.25 per litre.
Venezuela = RM 0.16 per litre.

We can read from Petronas 2007 annual report that Petronas having NET PROFIT of RM46.4 Billion ....

With the rebate of RM625 by the government does help a little.... if u only pump petrol 2 or 3 time a month..... but if all the things start getting price increase.... then the rebate RM625 didn't help at all..... :X

Some more now only those who renewed road tax for April - May can collect the rebate starting 14 June from the post office .... what about those who renewed on January - March?? Damn~! I renewed on March..... >.< so rugi.......

625 is better than nothing, but really doesn't cushion much of the impact...
