Day +701 : What a government!

I am fine today.

Today, we are presented with a “beautiful” petrol price hike – from RM1.92/litre to RM2.70/litre; a 40.625% increase over the old price :-(

All this while, the petrol price is subsidised by the government. Now the government decided to reduce the subsidies which result in the scaring (触目惊心) price hike.

I have no objection with the reduction of the subsidies but I really cannot tolerate a government who tell lies.

The cabinet minister Shahrir Abdul Samad said that there wouldn’t be new petrol price structure today, but drastic price hike prove that he was lying.

See the yesterday's Sin Chew Daily news about the petrol price below:


How can we entrust our nation to a government who is a liar? Who could put hope on an unworthy government without any credibility at all?

I think this government needs aggressive treatment; perhaps a few round of chemotherapies and some kind of transplant:-)

See you next post :-)

Dear Kuok Chai,

Ya loh! Very forgetful - very willing to be cheated :-( Don't know why.

There is no way for this type of government to ask the citizen to be trustworthy.
