Petrol Craze

Thank God i'm driving a diesel car. I got to pump my diesel in less than 30 minutes!

The petrol price has been increased. Increased greatly!

To consumers, this is something bad. Living cost is now higher, while salaries and pays are still the same.

However, i think it's fair that the government reduced the subsidies of petrol. The government has incurred billions and billions of ringgit on petrol subsidies. If they didn't reduce it, the cost might go up to almost RM 60 billion!

I think we as Malaysian citizens should put our feet in the government's shoes. If Malaysia keeps giving so much subsidies, sooner or later we're going to be like the America. Debts will be piling up.

Therefore, in my opinion, the action taken by the government is somewhat reasonable. We have the responsibility to help ease the financial cashflow of our country. Oil price of USD 128 is crazy! How in the world is our country going to survive for the long run.

So stop complaining! Dont' just think of yourselves. Think for your country!

But...at least put RM 2.50 also nevermind la.
