Here's the news from today's The Star Online:

Thursday June 5, 2008
Petrol price up by 78 sen - and will be reviewed monthly

PUTRAJAYA: The Government announced yesterday an increase in petrol and diesel prices, stating that it can no longer continue to subsidise fuel.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said the new prices were still at a 30-sen per litre discount from market prices.
In other words, if the market price is RM3 per litre, Malaysians will be charged RM2.70 at the pump. He said the price would be adjusted monthly based on the global oil price.
“Malaysians still pay lower than the market prices as far as petrol is concerned,” he told a packed press conference when announcing the restructuring of the subsidy package.
Abdullah said that although the restructuring would result in consumers having to pay more, prices were still lower compared with Singapore and Thailand.
He said the Government would save RM13.7bil through the restructuring.
From the savings, he said RM4bil would go to the National Food Supply Guarantee Policy, RM1.5bil for subsidising cooking oil and RM400mil to subsidise rice imports to make the price uniform in peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak.
The Government would also spend RM200mil on flour subsidy, RM100mil on bread subsidy and RM7.5bil was meant for contributions to the subsidies for petrol, diesel and gas.
On top of that, Abdullah said, the Government would have to fork out RM5bil to pay to owners of cars and motorcycles eligible for rebates introduced under the restructuring of subsidy package.
“Our effort is certainly not an attempt to be popular but we try our best to help the people. We cannot satisfy everyone,” he said.
Abdullah said demand for public transport would go up with the rise in fuel prices and the Government was currently addressing the need to improve services.
He reiterated that the public should make changes to their lifestyle, saying they must ensure there was no wastage in resources such as water, energy and food.
He said if certain adjustments were made, the public would not be “too badly affected by price increases”.
He said the hike in fuel prices would cause a projected increase in inflation of around 4% to 5%. It would also have an impact on the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) growth but was confident that it could be maintained at 5% this year.
Abdullah said the Cabinet committee on anti-inflation had to come up with a system to ease the public’s burden from higher fuel prices.
“What is important is that we want to ensure the restructuring will encompass a mechanism that will protect and benefit those in the lower and middle income group.
“We are truly committed in ensuring these groups will not be burdened by the increase in petrol and food prices,” he said.
Asked if the subsidy restructuring would result in Malaysians going to the streets to demonstrate their unhappiness, Abdullah was confident the people would not resort to that.

i dont understand and how i wish the government can guide us.

1. change lifestyle?
Ages, we spent money to survive, get a home, send children for proper education and strongly believe that the future will be brighter for the family and friends. By all these price increase, i can say change lifestyle meaning to be worst.

Why i said these, income tax money, tobacco and liquor tax, car import duties, dato ship money, tolls tax, movie tax and all everyday tax... WHAT HAPPENED?

Change lifestyle, currently Khairy open an outlet in Pavilion for what? where is the money come from. In the Umno statement, they said gaji kecil average 2,500 for khairy, dont tell me khairy can pay rental of shoplot in pavilion which cost 38,000 monthly....mmmm GOOD MONEY LAUNDERING.

Ask rakyat to change lifestyle.. do government change lifestyle? all the suits that their wearing (some of it designers clothing) will easily cost 14k to 30k each. Baju Melayu or batik shirt will cost around 10k per piece. If u sum up and wear Orlando shirt and kampung baru baju melayu... the expenditure will sum up only around 12k max Per annum instead of 100k that is per menteri's, imagine total up to 55 menteri's and 100 of dato, you do the math.

2. Jangan dengar khabar angin.
i heard rumors that fuel going up... and i tell to myself all these are rumors.. frustrated... rumors actually is true.

3. US faced economical downpour.
That is US, why asian country must suffer too? their economical downpour because they too much invest for firearms and artilleries to WAR. Why we have to follow them? If like this, how MYR will become as a same rate as US dollar? If Malaysian or Asian country face economical problems, do US suffer too? They will sent IMF for loan adalah...

4. angkasawan program, national sports centre in london, RMK9 all these price hike is for the project?

5. Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur.
Whats up for this? Do you know during night time, the whole building glowing and publish Faklah face?

6. Satellite.
Satellite Miasat 1 and Miasat 2, is for information technology, information superhighway, ASTRO. Now ASTRO is also part of daily burden. Last time we dont have to pay for TV and now we cant live without it. AS FOR EDUCATION PURPOSE, I am Okay with this.

7. Multimedia Super Corridor
What is this? Some part in Cyberjaya itself cannot install Streamyx. Students have to select the best location to get one.

mmmm.... I can say Merdeka Malaysia only to Government ruling, but Rakyat Malaysia and the Goverment are they Merdeka?

Thats it for now, have to continue work

Rising Fuel Prices

BY: Tun Dr Mahathir

The price of crude oil has increased by 400 percent in the last three years. It follows that the price of products must increase, sooner or later. In other countries petrol prices had already increased. In the United Kingdom one litre of petrol sells for more than one pound sterling or RM7. In the United States it is about RM5.

That the price in neighbouring countries has gone up is shown by the rush to fill up by Thai and to a lesser extent Singapore vehicles.

The Government has now announced an increase in petrol price by 78 sen to RM2.70 per litre, an increase of more than 40 per cent.

I may be mistaken but there seems to be less vehicles on the road today. But obviously that is not all that will happen. All other consumer goods, services and luxury goods would increase in price.

The cost of living must go up. Put another way there will be inflation and the standard of living will go down.

Obviously our increase in petrol price is far less than in the United Kingdom or the United States. But our per capita income is about one-third of theirs. In purchasing power terms our increase is more than in the UK or the US.

The increase hurts but the pain is greater not just because of the increase percentage-wise is higher than in developed countries but because of the manner the increase is made.

A few days ago the Government decided to ban sale of petrol to foreign cars. It flipped. Now foreign cars can buy again. Flopped.

Knowing that in a few days it was going to raise the price and foreigners would be allowed to buy, why cannot the Government just wait instead of banning and unbanning.

But be that as it may what could the Government have done to lessen the burden on the people that results from the increase in petrol price.

In the first place the Government should not have floated the Ringgit. A floating rate creates uncertainties and we cannot gain anything from the strengthened Ringgit. Certainly the people have not experienced any increase in their purchasing power because of the appreciation in the exchange rate between the US Dollar and the Ringgit.

Actually the Ringgit has increased by about 80 sen (from RM3.80 to RM3.08 to 1 US Dollar) per US Dollar, i.e. by more than 20 per cent. Had the Government retained the fixed rate system and increased the value of the Ringgit, say 10 per cent at a time, the cost of imports, in Ringgit terms can be monitored and reduced by 10 per cent. At 20 per cent appreciation the cost of imports should decrease by 20 per cent. But we know the prices of imported goods or services have not decreased at all. This means we are paying 20 per cent higher for our imports including the raw material and components for our industries.

Since oil prices are fixed in US Dollar, the increase in US Dollar prices of oil should also be mitigated by 20 per cent in Malaysian Ringgit.

But the Government wants to please the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank and decided to float the Ringgit. As a result the strengthening of the Ringgit merely increased our cost of exports without giving our people the benefit of lower cost of imports.

This is not wisdom after the event. I had actually told a Government Minister not to float the Ringgit three years ago. But of course I am not an expert, certainly I know little about the international financial regimes.

I believe the people expect the increase of petrol price. But what they are angry about is the quantum and the suddenness. The Prime Minister was hinting at August but suddenly it came two months earlier, just after the ban on sale of petrol to foreigners.

If the increase had been more gradual, the people would not feel it so much. But of course this means that the Government would have to subsidise, though to a decreasing extent.

Can the Government subsidise? I am the “adviser” to Petronas but I know very little about it beyond what is published in its accounts. What I do know may not be very accurate but should be sufficient for me to draw certain conclusions.

Roughly Malaysia produces 650,000 barrels of crude per day. We consume 400,000 barrels leaving 250,000 barrels to be exported.

Three years ago the selling price of crude was about USD30 per barrel. Today it is USD130 – an increase of USD100. There is hardly any increase in the production cost so that the extra USD100 can be considered as pure profit.

Our 250,000 barrels of export should earn us 250,000 x 100 x 365 x 3 = RM27,375,000,000 (twenty seven billion Ringgit).

But Petronas made a profit of well over RM70 billion, all of which belong to the Government.

By all accounts the Government is flushed with money.

But besides petrol the prices of palm oil, rubber and tin have also increased by about 400 per cent. Plantation companies and banks now earn as much as RM3 billion in profits each. Taxes paid by them must have also increased greatly.

I feel sure that maintaining the subsidy and gradually decreasing it would not hurt the Government finances.

In the medium term ways and means must be found to reduce wasteful consumption and increase income. We may not be able to fix the minimum wage at a high level but certainly we can improve the minimum wage.

Actually our wages are high compared to some of our neighbours. The investors who come here are attracted not by cheap labour but by other factors, among which is the attitude of the Government towards the business community and the investors in particular.

From what I hear business friendliness is wanting in the present Government – so much so that even Malaysians are investing in other countries. There are rumblings about political affiliations influencing decisions. Generally Government politicians are said to be arrogant.

Malaysia is short of manpower. The labour intensive industries are not benefiting Malaysians. Foreign workers are remitting huge sums of money home.

The industrial policy must change so that high tech is promoted in order to give Malaysians higher wages to cope with rising costs of living.

The world is facing economic turmoil due to the depreciation of the US Dollar, the sub-prime loan crisis, rising oil and raw material prices, food shortages and the continued activities of the greedy hedge funds. The possibility of a US recession is real. In a way the US is already in recession. The world economy will be dragged down by it.

Malaysia will be affected by all these problems. I wonder whether the Government is prepared for this.

We cannot avoid all the negative effects but there must be ways to mitigate against them and to lessen the burden that must be borne by all Malaysians. I am sure the Government will not just pass all these problems to the people as the review of oil prices every month seem to suggest.

KENYATAAN MEDIA AHLI PARLIMEN JERLUN DAN EXCO PEMUDA UMNO MALAYSIA YB DATO’ MUKHRIZ MAHATHIR

Saya rasa terkejut dengan pengumuman Perdana Menteri Malaysia YAB Dato’ Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi mengenai kenaikan harga minyak mendadak dan tanpa amaran semalam, sedangkan kenyataan yang dibuat di dalam media massa hanya pada pagi kelmarin memberi amaran bahawa kenaikan tersebut hanya akan berlaku pada bulan Ogos.

Pada pendapat saya, kita mesti mengambil tindakan yang bijak dalam mengimbangi keperluan rakyat dan kos harga minyak yang semakin naik. Kita perlulah mengambil kira pandangan semua pihak dalam mencapai satu formula perlaksanaan yang sesuai buat semua orang; dan bukan secara terburu-buru.

Pada hemat saya, masanya amatlah tidak sesuai untuk tindakan ini diambil dengan cara ini, walaupun kita sedar masalah minyak global harus ditangani diperingkat negara juga..

Saya kira, lebih wajar kenaikan ini dibuat secara berperingkat mengikut jadual yang diumumkan terlebih dahulu, untuk mengelakan ketidak tentuan dan keresahan, seperti mana yang berlaku sekarang ini. Rakyat perlu masa dan peluang untuk menyesuaikan diri dengan kenaikan yang begitu tinggi. Seperti yang kita lihat, keputusan ini telah memberikan kesan yang negatif kepada rakyat. Golongan peniaga dan pedagang pula mengalami ketidak ketentuan yang merumitkan perancangan untuk perbelanjaan perniagaan mereka.

Kerajaan tidak harus mengunakan alasan masalah ini ialah masalah global kerana setiap negara mempunyai situasi dan keadaan berbeza. Apa yang berjaya ditempat lain, tidak semestinya berjaya untuk sistem kita. Kita mempunyai masalah dan cara penyelesaian kita sendiri. Sebagai contohnya, sewaktu Malaysia mengumumkan kawalan matawang dan modal serta Ringgit Malaysia ditetapkan nilai (peg) kepada US Dollar pada 3 September 1998, tindakan itu dikecam pelbagai pihak diperingkat dalam negara dan antarabangsa kerana dianggap tidak konvensyenal. Akhirnya, ianya terbukti berjaya menyelesaikan masalah krisis ekonomi negara, dan Malaysia sebaliknya menerima pelbagai pujian dan pengiktirafan kepada tindakan di’luar kotak’ tersebut.

Saya juga terkilan dengan kenyataan YAB Perdana Menteri sebelum ini menggesa rakyat untuk menyesuaikan diri dengan cara hidup berbeza sebagai reaksi kepada kenaikan harga minyak dan kos sara hidup yang meningkat. Rata rata, rakyat dipendalaman, termasuk kawasan Jerlun yang saya wakili, menyara hidup secara ‘kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang’. Sejauh mana lagi mereka perlu menyesuaikan diri, setelah meningkatnya kos sara hidup pada tahap terlalu membebankan kepada golongan ini.

*Ikuti temuramah Dato’ Mukhriz dengan Astro Awani mengenai isu pengumuman kenaikan minyak mendadak

*Notakaki yang dikemaskini pada 7.10pm:

Malaysia telah menyaksikan tujuh kali kenaikan harga minyak semenjak 1 Mei 2004 (setelah PM ‘Flip-Flop’ Abdullah Ahmad Badawi di’sah’kan sebagai Perdana Menteri Malaysia setelah berjaya membawa BN memenangi 198 kerusi dari 219 kerusi Dewan Rakyat dalam Pilihnaraya Umum ke XI 21 Mac 2004).

Jadual kenaikan itu adalah:

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 1.37 dan diesel RM 0.78 seliter pada 1 Mei 2004

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 1.42 dan diesel RM 0.83 seliter pada 1 Okt 2004

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 1.42 dan diesel RM 0.88 seliter pada 1 Mac 2005

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 1.52 dan diesel RM 1.08 seliter pada 1 Mei 2005

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 1.62 dan diesel RM 1.28 seliter pada 31 Jul 2005

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 1.92 dan diesel RM 1.58 seliter pada 28 Feb 2006

- Harga runcit petrol ialah RM 2.70 dan diesel RM 2.58 seliter pada 5 Jun 2008

My 2 cents:

Scenario - A ruling goverment has just lost the controlling majority which they have enjoyed for the last 50 years to the collective efforts of the country opposition. Nonetheless, due to the competency of the incumbent party in being charitable (RM200 as pocket money to Rakyats whom turned up to vote back in their hometown, and many other non-exhaustive perks! which we all know full well were being employed to manipulate the voters & the Electoral Body alike) the ruling party remained in power after gaining the people's mandate.

As per the scenario above, if you were to be the leader of the winning party above, what would you do?

Option (A) - would you try your very best to appease the Rakyat as it would be deemed, through the results of the General Election, that they are disillussioned by the acts of your party and it is should be your utmost priority to regain the confidence lost by promoting a more effecient, transparent, and considerate ruling government/cabinet

- OR -

Option (B) - would you do even worse by punishing the rakyat with unecessary raise of commodity prices & more government cover-ups (Hey, what happened to Althantuya's case & the "Lingam Show"? It seems that nowadays the high profile names linked to the cases above are being forgotten as we tackle the more serious issue of fuel price hike. I know it's not wrong to concentrate on a more immediate issue, however does it not make you wonder if this is all again a BIG cover up to bury all past cases and allow those whom have sinned get away scot-free? This kinda feels like a 'Rahim Tamby Chik' or even a 'Muhammad Taib'. Who says you can't blatantly break the law and still end up holding some senior post within the ruling party or even the state government!) and further lose the faith and confidence of the Rakyat & ensure that within the next 4 years, the Ruling Coalition would definitely be voted out?


Realistically, I feel the Ruling Coalition is certainly aware that the clock, spelling the end of their generation-long reign, is ticking away. SO, what do they do? Imagine 4 years down the road, would we still vote for BN? God-forbid, I hope not!

As such, they being the sly leaders/ministers, are definitely planning some grand get-away schemes for their remaining lifes after losing the General Election (sometime in 2012,or sooner I hope).

Therefore, after having already amassed considerable wealth (not to mention, moral-sins) within the period of 50 years or so since Merdeka, I bet my head that they are now puting in place their coup de grace/final PLAN (just like a robber planning his FINAL GREAT heist before riding into the sunset) to ROB us all MALAYSIANS of our hard earned money & our country's natural resources before "retiring happily ever-after ala Thaksin Shinawatra or Tommy Suharto" to an overseas country.


Personally, I think it's HIGH time we as rakyats come together and rid ourselves of the stinking, incompetent, traitor, snake of a leader before we are made into fools within the next 4/5 years by ridding ourselves of them but with no FINANCIAL STABILITY or NATURAL RESOURCES left in the country to sustain us for in a future which is becoming more and more competitive.


30,000 people in a demonstration would not make them bat an eyelid. Heck, with just 1 bus load of FRUs, I bet my ass within half hour only 300 will be left out of the original 30,000.

NOW, how bout 1,000,000 of us in the streets? HELL, my guess is as good as yours! BUT, I know for sure that if it really happens and ALL 1,000,000 of us turned up to rid ourselves of the snakes in the cabinet, I guarantee that they will really tremble and shiver.

Oh...btw, when I was still a young boy riding my bicycle, I used to hear lotsa talk about a certain project called Bakun which was said to be able to cope with the electricity demand of our nation come Vision 2020. Hmmmm....I wonder what has happened to the great Bakun....


Ever wondered how much money was allocated for the projek terbengkalai? Only God knows!!!

Howlah, when are we going to wake up and unite as Malaysians and say "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!"

Minyak Petrol Naik RM3.15 Hujung Bulan Ini Jika Tidak Distruktur Semula

PUTRAJAYA, 12 Jun (Bernama) -- Kerajaan mungkin terpaksa menetapkan harga runcit bahan api yang lebih tinggi daripada RM2.70 bagi petrol dan RM2.58 bagi diesel berkuatkuasa Khamis lepas, jika ia tidak menstrukturkan sistem subsidi bahan bakar.

Ini kerana harga minyak mentah global meningkat kepada AS$138 setong dua hari selepas itu.

Tanpa sistem subsidi baru yang ditetapkan pada 30 sen, kerajaan mungkin terpaksa menetapkan harga pada RM3.15 seliter untuk petrol, kata Menteri Kewangan Kedua Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop.

Menurut beliau semasa kerajaan mengumumkan harga baru petrol, harga tanpa subsidi ialah RM3.00 seliter dan dengan subsidi harganya RM2.70 seliter iaitu kurang 30 sen.

Pada 4 Jun, kerajaan mengumumkan harga petrol dan diesel masing-masing meningkat 78 sen dan RM1 seliter.

"Namun pada Jumaat, dua hari selepas pengumuman harga baru, harga dipasaran naik sehingga US$178 setong. Berasaskan pada harga itu, harga tanpa subsidi sekarang ialah 3.45 sen," katanya pada taklimat media mengenai Bajet 2009 hari Khamis.

"Harga dah naik, jadi kalau kita tidak buat apa-apa dan kekalkan sistem subsidi. Hujung bulan kita terpaksa umumkan harga minyak pada RM3.15 sen seliter," katanya sambil menambah jumlah subsidi akan meningkat ketahap RM33 bilion.

Nor Mohamed berkata tanpa penstrukturan semula, kerajaan mengunjurkan jumlah subsidi dari Jun hingga Disember 2008 sebanyak RM10 bilion, manakala bagi lima bulan pertama 2008, jumlah subsidi meningkat kepada RM8 bilion.

Menurutnya jumlah hasil kerajaan dari semua sumber hanya RM147 bilion dan daripada jumlah itu, RM33 bilion harus dikeluarkan daripada bajet untuk memberi subsidi kepada syarikat-syarikat minyak kerana mereka telah diminta menjual minyak pada tahap yang rendah.
