They can come up with all sort of reasons and excuses to increase the price. Ya, say the seller that prices of vegetables increases according to the weather at times due to shortage of stocks available but then, will the price ever go down after that? That's the question that we all want to know.

People say what goes up must come down...but Prices went up hardly comes down even the prices of fuel had already went down previously at a time and we still see the prices of food, product, services and etcs are still maintaining at that price.

So, their explanations are totally bullshit to me. The more you explain, the more you exposed your intentions on price hike. Cuz those explanations sounds silly if only they read what they said again.

Woohoo.. RM2.50 for milo ais the other day and RM2.20 for kopi ais.

Thank you gov.
I bought 8 Goreng Cempedak for RM10. :banghead:

Already packed for me when I was asking half way before I get to ask the price so no choice but to take. He is smart, he keep telling us that he sells small is 8 pieces and big is 16 pieces.

We asked twice how do you sell it? He didnt mention the price. So, we were thinking it wont cost much so just tell him small one...when I ask how much? He said RM10...me and my gf stunned and look at each other for a moment. Paid him and left...

That stall is going to be boycott for good. Kepong Sunday Pasar Malam. Taste like shit and yet cost RM10.

Lesson learnt especially the fuel price increased, better ask the price before buying. :banghead:

The problem we are facing is that citizen is not given a better alternatives on mode of transportation because our railway coverage is just not up to par. In KL center you still can only take the rail to a certain places but out of the city center. You are probably need to take bus or taxi. Our rail system is just not thought out properly and the bus route also not every where is covered. Just like the place I live no bus service. Seriously, we need to really re-look into our rail system routing. Other than train between each state we need to have train that provide service to different towns.

Example la:
Main station: Seremban
Sub station:
Senawang
Kuala Pilah
Gemas
Mantin
Nilai
Kuala Klawang
Bahau
Port Dickson
Jelebu
Tampin
Rembau
Seremban2
Ampangan
Sikamat
Pedas
Kuala Lumpur is fast becoming like Tokyo in the sense that a lot people who work here live a distance away.

But a lot of people are against the double-track railway project.

Haven't feel the effect yet since I have not filled up too. Surely will have some domino effect on prices, but don't know how much. I read a few days ago in some news site that some analysts predict maybe about 3% inflation. I guess just have to tighten the belt buckle a bit, we'll see.

I wish the gov introduce lower RON90-92 at cheaper price than 1.90 to compensate. If so, I'll switch my Livina to those lower RON.
Ron 92, Even my wife's China made Chery cannot run on it, need at least Ron 93.....so Ron 95 just nice

Ya mine is not walking distance as well, i have to drive to the train station. Well, at least I'm glad Kita Takkan Maju already maju than before. At least train not so cramp and is on time for the moment.
Going to the station is one thing, then from the station to work place another.....:banghead:

TR, u mentioned that the main business that will be effected will be the transportation industry,
meaning that they will be cutting costs, no promotion, no pay raise etc.....damn...:biggrin:
So instead of getting a bigger raise, company cut and cover their over head.....:banghead::banghead:

Lorry owners increase fees by 15%

PETALING JAYA: Lorry owners have hiked transportation fees by 15%, claiming it is “reasonable and justified”, in spite of the public outcry.

Pan Malaysian Lorry Owners Association’s (PMLOA) president Jong Foh Ji defended the rise and said they were forced to do so.

“We have been burdened with rising costs of spare parts, tyres, batteries, insurance premiums, and also minimum and worker’s wages over the years.

“The 15% rise is not solely based on the 11% rise in diesel cost but also all other factors,” he told The Star.

Now Mr.Gomen will repeat your earlier statement that the prices of food and goods remain unchanged? The rakyat better brace yourselves for significant price increase across mopst if not all goods and services.

Sometimes highly doubt the quality of petrol in malaysia as the gov always sell those quality source to other country first 'money come first'..
What i mean is ron95 is a fake octane rating if inspect with how dirty the spark plugs can be :thumpdown:

Used to be Mitsu 4G94 single cam 2.4L. Now on their own engine but by Austrian designer. Called the Acteco and is 2.0 twin cam. Manual written to use Ron 93....

Probably would agree with bro. desmond maybe our patrol is listed as Ron95 but do not have that standard.....:banghead::banghead::banghead:

Actually an easy solution for Rakyat, is to allow car manufacturers to import small displacement turbo diesel. Better mileage, so more KM for your Ringgit.

But alas, our government only sell cheap shit dirty diesel here, all those clean diesel engines will kaput. Not to mention if they start introducing Ford Fiesta 1.4L Diesel, VW Polo and Golf Diesels, Proton can start to close shop already.
