Metalslug Neutral Newbie December 3, 2008 Share December 3, 2008 http://news.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne%2BNew...202-105034.html Malaysia cuts fuel price by 5% Tue, Dec 02, 2008 AFP KUALA LUMPUR - MALAYSIA on Tuesday cut petrol prices by 5.0 per cent, bringing pump prices down to 1.90 ringgit (S$0.80) per litre amid easing global crude prices. Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawisaid said the 10 sen cut would be effective on Wednesday with diesel also reduced by 10 sen to 1.80 ringgit per litre. 'As the price of oil has visibly dropped, the government has again made a decision to reduce retail prices so that the public can benefit,' he said in a statement. It is the sixth fuel price cut the government has announced since June's 41 per cent hike on the back of soaring crude costs, which sparked angry street protests and calls for the premier to resign. The last cut, by 15 sen, was just over two weeks ago. June's hike saw inflation soar, with the August price index reaching a 26-year high of 8.5 per cent, also driven by the escalating cost of food and transportation. Inflation has since eased at 7.6 per cent in October as fuel prices dropped. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigershark1976 Turbocharged December 3, 2008 Share December 3, 2008 i think i read frm Mal newpaper last week that the petrol mkt price is ard RM1.60/L, at $1.90/L. If that s true, Malaysian petrol is no longer subsidised.... the gov is actually taxing on the petrol liao. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
