This is a rip off to consumers,and garmen dont do anything abt it.

Why can't they announce any price changes prior to price increase? Like

public transport?

[XLR8]

As usual, what's new. It has become a monthly affair.

[Scenic98]

here we go again....crude now firmly in 117.53 this morning.

[Rickster]

Its not that the garmen don't want to do anything. In fact, the very reason why the price rise so much is because of them in the first place. U think the oil cartels can have their way in a place so tightly controlled called sinkapoor?

[Rickster]

I'd be happy if its a monthly affair. Its now a fortnightly affair! The past 2 price hikes and the current one is only 2 weeks apart of each.

Increase is good for them.......they get to tax more. Of course they tiam-tiam lor.

 

In fact, they are laughing all the way to the bank.

 

But hor, they will say never earn rah, its just a small amount....blah blah blah. Try to smoke us.

 

Just like they claim ERP is taking in less money then road tax!!!!!! What CRAP!!!!!!

[XLR8]

No la bro, where got 2 weeks. Here check this out...

 

Chevron Singapore Pte. Ltd., which markets the Caltex

[Rickster]

Oh sorry. I'm juz so angry now dat i can't tink straight! ARGH!!!

[Napshot69]

let's all go convert our rides to CNG bah.......

Any brudders here organise group CNG install?

[XLR8]

 

It happens la. There was an incident which the "Cake" shops increase price together then kena the anti competition law thingy. I wonder why petroleum companies never kena before. One raise, all raise. Knn poor citizens go which station also same price.

[Rickster]

Yea, the more the oil cartels earn, the more the garment get to tax them for their profits. That is on top of the petrol tax and GST they are alrdy enjoying. No wonder the garment is so protective of the oil cartels. Coz they are happily doing triple taxation on them!

[Rickster]

For my usage, installing a CNG will take me at least 2.5-3 years to break even...by then i might not even be driving liao

[Ghostrider]

Its the "Huat Quay" thing rite ?

 

That is so stupid...they increase price together is call anti competition or something they term it....but petrol company increase one after another...is "adjustment to market"

 

Simi crap....no wonder pple chose to escape from the toilet.

[XLR8]

Yaya, the Huat Quay! They call it anti-competition law. Maybe petrol companies got hidden secrets which we dont know?

 

I agree on the toilet escape scenario.

[Ronnchee]

Wah Lau ...

 

Expected lah, sooner or later, what is the surprise.

 

Now is time to look into other means of transport. Bro, can drive me to work or not ?
