damn..... just pump 50L this morning....

If that I were to know got increase, I am sure to shake the car to fill up to the brim....

 

S$0.04 per litre X 50l = +$2.

Less discount at 14% = $1.72.

S$1.72 another discount at 5% = $1.63.

 

Per month I use 250l so total = S$1.63 X 5 = $8.15.

Singaporean are known to be pennywise, pound foolish....

Because of this amount, many people will start to drive slow to have better F/C...

Slow = more time on the road = more jams = back to square 1 & infact, it became negative....

Since when they need to justify anything?

 

Some petrol company spokesman already said previously that crude oil price is just "part" of the cost...

 

When one company increase price, all others will most likely follow-up soon.

 

My philosophy is just LLST accept it bec the authorities just [rolleyes] [rolleyes] [rolleyes] about these price increases & if queried they will just urge you to take public transport loh.

 

Many forgot that we pay IIRC S$0.60/L petrol duty to Ah Gong every time we pump gas at kiosks, something which petrol companies also mentioned many times.

 

And of course the [furious] 3/4 tank rule to ensure folks do not go over & pump cheap petrol back

 

So basically we are F'ed & are caught between the devil & the deep blue sea...

 

Really bo bian just take public transport loh..
