Petrol and diesel increase...

On last Thusday, our infamous Pak Lah announce increase of fuel price. His brilliant and selfish idea has lead to havoc for Malaysian. That night, once the petrol price increase to Rm2.70 announced, everyone rushed to the petrol station started to fill up their tank and caused major traffic jam in the entire city.

The next day after hike in fuel price, everything increase. Some take chances to increase their profit as well. One thing I don't really understand, Malaysia is a net exporter for crude oil and yet it the oil price is still so high. I have read an article published by our Ex-PM here, and it full of resources. Petronas have been enjoying the profit for more than 3 decade, where is the money goes? Money politics and corruption is not something new in this country. What the politician care not for the people, but for their own advantage.

Imagine the consequences of increase of fuel price and the impact to the society. This will definitely lead to dominoes effect. When fuel price increase, our basic necessities increase. Inflation also increase due to shrinking in our purchasing power. In my opinion, when situation change, the politician should be the first one to change their lifestyle not the people.

Be prepare for the 2nd and 3rd hit wave for fuel price surge in the future. I doubt how's the feeling of the people who voted for BN.
