78 cents increase per litre, well..its not much when compared to the oil prices around the southeast asian region. Thailand has a petrol price of RM 4.00 per litre while philipines is around there too.. True, it will be costlier now to travel. The REBATE of rm625 is insufficient to cover the petrol hike for most Malaysians. But, considering the fact that its USD 130 per barrel of oil now, i sincerely think its the right move to take by the government. Subsidies must be better allocated rather than spending around 56 billion a year on petrol subsidies, hopefully the allocation of subsidies this time around will be just and well distributed.
But what I dont get, is the mob mentality of Malaysians who queue up to save RM 16 for a full tank. True, you save...but whats the point of being stuck in the frenzy for oil and subject yourself to a few hours of torture for a full tank of petrol. Its not as if the petrol are free...
I've started working freelance for a friend's company. I will officially start work on the 1st of July. Its essentially a headhunting firm called Yellow Elevator. Its webbased..if you guys are free, visit the website. If anyone needs a job or a better one, give me a call or msg me.. I will try my sincere best to recommend you for the designated job. The system is also launching in Singapore, HK, Australia, Thailand and Dubai around the same time. So feel free to contact me.
But the pay is a bit on the low side..its just 1.5K per month. But i have a company phone and that i can claim 40 cents per litre of petrol...considering the rise of the petrol prices, hell its not looking good at all..but hey, im in for the experience and maybe i will find a better job in the future. But for the next 3-5 years, i see myself commiting fully to the cause of Yellow Elevator.
Hopefully, i'll be able to afford petrol when it rises to RM 4.00 per litre in the future. =)
