New Scheme of Petrol Subsidy



Reading a report from the STAR today attracted by one claim by the Second Finance Minister Tan Sri Nor Mohammed Yaakub. Tan Sri claimed that the new structure of the Petrol subsidy will bring about a more efficient economy. I wander how this can be derived at by YB Tan Sri. Whatever it is and the more apprent issue at hand is to settle the aftermath shock by the citizen at large, this can be seen as a large turn out at petrol kioks throughout the country. all the road leading to petrol kioks are jamp up, this is a situation that I have never seen for the past 38 years. Of course as a minister all your petrol will be taken care of by the government, furthermore, Tan Sri enjoy all the privileges that the people at large do not had a chance to even glance at it. Tan Sri please come out with something that will help the people but not word and theory only. Whatever theory that the academician may have is still secondary. What is important and in utmost urgency is in what way and how the people is going to sail through this difficult journey of the day. It is time for the government to think of machanism to tackle the chain effect that will affect the citizen at large. The only voice that I have heard for the past 24 hours is either, heavy responsibility or "matilah kali ini". I really do not what to tell all these people that I met because I myself do are in the satge of the shock aftermath!!! The aftermath effect is the buses are now increasing thier price, the lorry are increasing their tranportation costs, taxi may be the next, hawkers may also increase their food prices, etc-etc.

我看了你的这篇文章后,和你感同身受。第一个反应是"matilah". 但进过一天后,我认为政府逐步减少津贴是对的,但是不是已经准备好石油涨价所带来得连锁反应呢?抱括通货澎张呢?政府如果逐步减少津贴,省下的钱将会用在那里呢?是不是应该不再投资那些大白象计划呢?
我建议应该收购大道,让全民都受惠。提高公共措施让人民能够不必开车都能到每一个地方。
