Consider lowering petrol price further
DAP National Deputy Chairman and MP for Kepong Dr Tan Seng Giaw calls on the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affair Minister to consider the need to reduce the price of petrol for the sixth time in three months, because the price of crude oil has gone down below US$50 per barrel.
On 21.11.2008, Dr Tan remarks on the lowest crude oil price of US$50 per barrel in New York for three and a half years, the 12 month crude future being RM49.62 per barrel. The London North Sea crude future is US$48.08 per barrel.
Yesterday, the minister Datuk Shahrir wound up the debate in Parliament on the budget allocation for his ministry. He mentioned the reduction of the petrol price for the fifth time since 28.8.2008. Petrol is RM 2 per litre and diesel RM1.90.
I asked him three questions: when will he lower the petrol price again? After the fifth adjustment, how much will the Government make from petrol? Will petrol stations be short of petrol?
Shahrir said that there should not be shortage of petrol. Owners of some stations complained that they buy petrol at the old price. With the new price they sell at a disadvantage.
Although the minister has not replied on the possibility of reducing petrol price for the sixth time in three months, he must consider the matter seriously as the price of crude is below US$ 50 per barrel. Lowering petrol price further will lighten the burden on the people.
We hope that the current financial measures including the RM 7 billion stimulation package will be effective against the global financial tsunami. Besides promoting credit flow and tackling unemployment, reducing the price of goods especially petrol and diesel is essential.

Dear doctor,
DAP MPs and state assemblymen still do not realised they are in power today becoz the Malays voted them and now they are trying to be heroes to the chinese community only.
to the DAP dont you all are aware that alcohol are bad for health just like cigarette.
I am a chinese and i hate all the above habits.
Not all policies by PAS are bad.
in fact PAS has been urging bread earners to go back to their families after work instead of heading to all these karaokes joint where alcohol and chinadoll are in abundance.
i remember not very long ago a group of chinese housewife went to see a certain OCPD asking for help
becoz their husband have been spending all their time in all these karaokes outlet.
how many chinese families have succumbed to these evil ?
bread winner spending their hard earned money on alcohol, gambling and later on womanising will come along.
DAP remember you guys represent all malaysians and please do not try to be a hero to a certain community even though knowing very well all the above are bad for everyone.
carry on with your typical chinaman attitude and i can guarantee you guys will all be a one term MP/state assemblyman.

Dear, Bangsa Cina Malaysia
Please learned to be polite when comments, be constructive and consider looking forward to others aspects as well such as business activities.
Well, most of the peoples living here know alcohol and cigarette were harmed for health without your reminder again and again. To some of the case mentioned, it was only belong to a small community/family issued that themselves must realised what are the stories behind or I guess you might be one of the unfortunates. Who’s to blame? Is that relates to education problem you had faced and if it is, please let us know.
Looks carefully from the post and topic, don’t just bark by self interest and secretly in this column.
By reading your comment, you do not deserve to become a real Malaysian.
Thanks.
