ALL Malaysians will feel the pinch in their pockets wit the sudden hike of petrol price from RM1.92 to Rm.2.70 The small motorcyle that takes in RM4 full tank petrol began to take in $7.00 petrol at the last petrol price raise. This time it is going to take about $10.00 to fill up that small petrol tank.
Not to mention about cars and vans and also trucks and small business transportation. Who is going to pay for this extra expenses ? Surely it will come down to the consumers. Tis will mean everything is costing more from 5th.June 2008. However, salary remains the same. Thus there is this heavier burden for all rakyat Malaysia.
This is made worse off with the shortage of rice, the more expensive bread and butter, the unprofitable nasi lemak etc. Some are deciding to stop business soon. What is the point of selling at marginal profit and worse no business at all.
Hardship is coming upon all Malaysians. The government may under estimated the effect of such price hike, but surely it is going to turn many to crimes and others to poverty. Instead of eradicating poverty, many are made poorer. Such can cause a spiral effect to an unrest society.
Why allowing the prosperity of the nations to fatten the rich, and not taking the profits to reduce the burden of daily livelihood of all general population. Some said our petrol is cheaper than many other nations, that does not warrant to cause the poor to suffer if our nation can help it. Imagine those billions and millions that have been spend eastefully by some can be use to subdise our basic needs, the rakyat will be enjoying the true prosperity of Malaysia.
Hope whatever policy we may want to implement, please bear in mind the suffering of the poor rakyat, not so much as those who could afford to throw away millions. Waste not want not. Otherwise Malaysia will be punished by God and we will have to face the suffering from the wrath of nature.
