Price of RON95, Diesel, LPG, Sugar Increased
Price of RON95, Diesel, LPG and Sugar have been increased and the new prices are effective from 4 December 2010.
I think everybody already know about the new prices of RON95, Diesel, LPG and Sugar that was annnounced yesterday and the new prices are effective from today. I do expect continuous price increase based on study announced by PEMANDU early this year, yg kononnya utk selamatkan Malaysia dari bankrap (tapi buat 100-storey mega tower boleh pulak ye), but what I do not expect was another price increase in 2010 after the last announcement of new prices in July 2010. In Nov this year, our Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism clearly mentioned there will be no price increase for RON95 until end of this year, but….hmmm
sekadar menyampaikan rasa sedikit ketidak puashatian on how they handle the situation…if it is good for the rakyat in the long term, announce it properly…tak payah la janji sana janji sini…dan kalau dah sarankan rakyat berjimat, kerajaan pun patut berjimat sama…100-storey mega tower?? tak perlu la kot
anyway below is the data of old and new prices
Business Times Online, December 04, 2010
The government today announced subsidy reductions of five sen per litre for RON 95 petrol and diesel, five sen per kg for LPG and 20 sen per kg for sugar effective tomorrow.
With the reduction, RON95 petrol will cost RM1.90 per litre, diesel RM1.80 per litre, LPG RM1.90 per kg and sugar RM2.10 per kg.
The subsidy rationalisation announcement was made in a joint statement by the Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism and the Performance Management and Delivery Unit (Pemandu) of the Prime Minister’s Department.
The statement said that despite the increase, Malaysia’s retail prices for all the items remained lower than those in neighbouring countries, such as Indonesia, Singapore and Thailand.
For example, the price per litre for RON95 petrol is RM2.46 in Indonesia, RM4.36 in Singapore and RM4.25 in Thailand, while the price per litre for diesel is RM2.50 in Indonesia, RM3.18 in Singapore and RM2.96 in Thailand.
LPG costs RM2 per kg in Indonesia, RM6.42 in Singapore and RM1.93 in Thailand while sugar is priced at RM3.50 per kg in Indonesia, RM3.80 in Singapore and RM2.80 in Thailand.
The first step towards the subsidy rationalisation programme was made on July 16 when subsidies for RON95 petrol and diesel were reduced by five sen per litre, for LPG by 10 sen per kg, and for sugar by 25 sen per kg.
The statement said the subsidy rationalisation was necessary as the government recognised that it must continue to manage its fiscal position by enhancing revenue and, at the same time, reducing expenditure.
The Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) aimed to increase the Gross National Income (GNI) per capita to reach US$15,000 by the year 2020, it said.
To achieve this, it added, the GDP must grow at least at six per cent per annum and this would allow government revenue to increase via tax collection.
The Government Transformation Programme (GTP) attempted to address issues in the six National Key Result Areas (NKRAs), amongst which poverty, rural basic infrastructure and education clearly had an impact on the bottom 40 per cent of the population, it said.
For example, it said, since January this year, the government had built 538km of rural roads, 260 per cent more than the previous year, opened 1,358 pre-school classes benefiting 54,569 children, and reduced the number of hardcore poor households by 55 per cent.
The government was taking the welfare of the poor people as a key priority under the GTP, the statement said.

Nizamjb: ye ke gaji besar
.. sy penah merasa gaji rm400 sebulan. Penah makan maggi hari-hari. Tapi tak pernah pula sy merungut. Nak kata gaji besar sekarang, tak jugak. Lebih sedikit dr apa yg dapat dulu. Itu pun selepas berapa lama berhempas pulas utk merasa sedikit sebanyak nikmat dunia. Kenapa fikirkan masalah. Fikirkan cara utk selesaikan. Kenapa mendoakan oranglain susah hanya kerana kita dalam keadaan tu. Aii entahlah. Ramai orang salah faham. Bila dengar, oo keja O&G.. mesti gaji besar ni. Itu sudut pandangan sempit & tidak menyeluruh. Bukan semua O&G tu gaji besar. Gaji rm800 sebulan pun ada. Tapi takkan nak announce kot.. oiiiii aku keja O&G, gaji aku rm800 je sebulan. Yg mungkin dikatakan gaji besar tu.. mungkin engineer? senior engineer? manager? tengok plak, ada yg permanent, ada yg kontrak, ada yg daily paid. Macam-macam…
suka hati korang la nak fikir apapun. Selagi kita hanya fikir masalah, tak fikir CARA.. sampai bila-bila pun camtu la. Yg kita tahu hanya terus merungut.

Saya tak mendoakan sesiapa pun ditimpa susah.. cuma disuruh renungkan sejenak bagaimana agaknya jika kita berada dikalangan majoriti yang berpendapatan rendah.
Plus saya bukan berfikiran sempit pasal sektor O&G tapi sememangnya saya part of it as well, sebab itu yang saya berani cakap. Dan saya juga sedar yang rezeki yang Allah bagi hari ini tak semestinya sama dengan apa yang akan kita dapat esok.. so sendiri mau ingat.

Sy bukan baran bro. Cume memberi pandangan dan berkongsi bagaimana cara sy dan anda berfikir. Nak meluah dan membantah sikit dah kata baran..haihh..Takkan nak jadi angguk2 geleng2 tunduk2 ikut2 die2 saye2 kiri kanan ikut saje!!! Ini ruangan komen so komen jela apa yg anda rs anda nak komen bro. Budak sekolahpun tahu bising2 dicni x memberi kesan pd keputusan kerajaan bro,x pyh bg tahupon xpe..Tetapi apa yg kite boleh ubah ialah cara kita berfikir hasil dr komen2 yg dihantar. Dari cara fikir inilah lahirnya tindakan dan dr tindakan inilah insyallah berubah keputusan kerajaan nnti…takkan tupon saudara x bleh fikir.. anda berfikir spt fikiran pak turut. Org buat masalah, kita fikirkan penyelesaiannya…Kalau camtu smpi bile kite akan menjadi penyelesai masalah sahaja?? Btw, apa kaitan permasalahan ini dgn duit simpanan org luar bandar?? Berapa rmai org luar bandar yg mempunyai jumlah simpanan yg banyak bro?? Buat perbandingan biar bijak bro, duit simpanan x melambangkan anda senang/kaya bro..dan duit simpanan itu hak pribadi anda, saya dan mereka..anda x boleh mempertikai jumlah simpanan org lain dan ini x bleh jd isu bro..kita b’cakap tentang komitmen dan keperluan harian yang semakin menekan berbanding pendapatan..bukan pasal duit simpanan..skalipon duit simpanan anda sudah berbakul itu x bermakna anda perlu bayar lebih utk sesuatu berbanding org lain..Pendapatan lain simpanan lain…kalau nak hidup dr pendapatan yg ckup pun dah jd x ckup smpi kene guna duit simpanan itu ZALIM bro..berfikiran bijak sikit bro Pacific bile melontar pandangan…hehehe..peace(^_^)Y

Aku memang suka baca komen ko BHfans! Ko ni memang kelakar, lain yang aku cakap, lain yang ko faham. Ko yang buat stereotype mengatakan orang luar bandar susah (sila baca balik komen sendiri), tup, tup ko kata aku nak kata kononnya banyak duit tu kaya, pada hal aku tak ke situ pun. Ko ni memang best la, BHfans, you are the ‘half glass empty’ type of gal. Cayalah!
