They should take this opportunity (rising of world crude oil price) to educate rakyat that subsidies will one day no longer an option. We could probably take advantage of Petronas (since half of the cost of subsidy is paid by them) for another 2 decades.<br><br>Early budget estimated the government will pay RM 35 bil for oil subsidies and now turn up to be RM 55 bil. With the RM 20 bil there are so many infrastructure can be built and now just disappear into the thin air. Crude Oil trading around USD 127 with a jump to USD 150 is just an increase of 20% and government could see another RM 20 bil gone.<br><br>We need to change together with the environment in order to make ourselves stronger. Hopeful tomorrow announcement will not be a disappointing one. With the initial plan of revamp the whole system (with MyCard reader) and hope government will not still pay ten of billions for fuel subsidies after the massive change of system that could cost another huge amount I believe.<br><br>The government should give subsidies of a relevant amount of gasoline each month to all and anything above that amount the individual had to pay for unsubsidized gasoline. To control price frustration, government should start stock pile on crude oil so the price is less speculative. <br><br>Btw, I disagree with bernard khoo calculation. Crude oil and gasoline is different. Crude oil is just like uncut diamond and gasoline is like a sparkling diamond. 1 barrel of crude oil after refinery could is lesser and cost of refinery occurred.dkMon, 02 Jun 2008 21:43:18 -0000
