An increase of 78 cents on petrol all around Malaysia; from the original RM1.92 per litre to the new RM2.70 per litre, is putting all Malaysians from all walks of life jumping from their seats. I wouldn't said that it is not right to increase the petrol price and removing the subsidy, but such drastic and sudden increase will result in negative impacts towards the country economy, with the decrease of near 30 points in KLSE yesterday.
And how about the feeling and life of the people?
First we see a price increase in rice, which hiked up all food price, and now we are thrown to face such high increase in petrol price. What is the trend here? Are the government out of money to spend? Are we going bankrupt? Is there a motive or agenda behind all these? To make people feel that we cannot afford to have a change in government or leadership under such strenous time? I wouldn't want to speculate because there are so many possibilities.
But one thing for sure, a lot of people will suffer especially families that earn just enough but now have to be taken to task to cope with at least RM100-200 increase in petrol spending. And that's on petrol alone.
We all know there is going to be a superb chain reaction.
Petrol price increase = everything increase.
So we are not going to only spend more on petrol, but on daily expenses as well.
Thank you Pak Lah.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
