| PKR Central Supreme Council member cum PKR Sabah Treasurer Posted: 03 Dec 2010 09:08 AM PST  PKR Central Supreme Council member cum PKR Sabah Treasurer – Dr Roland Chia Ming Shen condemn the government decisions to increase the prices of RON95 grade of petrol, diesel, liquified petroleum gas as part of its mechanism in the NEM- New economy Model. The fuel price increases will cause inflation in the transportation sector and that will escalate prices in all sectors of the economy. Food supply will cost more. The increase of prices of daily groceries will certainly add burden to the ordinary citizens especially the wage earners with families to feed, the old aged and also the pensioners. Even our neighbor oil producing country Brunei has lower petrol selling prices compared to us by 40%, why can't we have the similar pricing in terms of pump fuel in the kiosk. The sudden announcement by the government and flash lightning implementation in less than 7 hours is a cheap and cunning trick by the Government. If they were genuine, these hikes would have been planned and implemented in stages with prior full public notice. This is ambush tactics. Afraid of public reaction. On another issue, Dr Roland Chia is puzzled because the reason the government claimed that the subsidy withdrawal is to save the government money yet they still insisted to build the 100 storey tower. 1MalaysiaBoleh! Just like the Twin Towers, this 1-Malayia Tower once built - our GLCs will be forced to rent all the floors and suck up the costs of maintaining the project. So in conclusion, where does it benefit the ordinary Rakyat? What are needed to be removed are not the subsidies BUT Corruption which is costing the country at least RM4.0 Billion annually instead of the expected savings of RM1.9 Billion from subsidy cuts. This certainly does not augur well with the concept - Rakyat Didahulukan Pencapaian Diutamakan.  |
