The History Of Malaysia Petrol Price

History of increasing price of petrol. (For 16 years, from 1990)

Before 90 - RM 0.89
year 1990 - RM 1.10 (increased RM 0.21)
01/10/2000 - RM 1.20 (increased RM 0.10)
20/10/2001 - RM 1.30 (increased RM 0.10)
01/05/2002 - RM 1.32 (increased RM 0.02)
31/10/2002 - RM 1.33 (increased RM 0.01)
01/03/2003 - RM 1.35 (increased RM 0.02)
01/05/2004 - RM 1.37 (increased RM 0.02)
01/10/2004 - RM 1.42 (increased RM 0.05)
05/05/2005 - RM 1.52 (increased RM 0.10)
31/07/2005 - RM 1.62 (increased RM 0.10)
28/02/2006 - RM 1.92 (increased RM 0.30)

Below are the common statement that always we heard.

1. Increasing of petrol price still low compared with other country.

2. Increasing of petrol price do not increase the burden of people ?

3. Government promised that there will not be any petrol prices increased anymore.

We all know that fuel price are kept increasing and government petrol subsidy will be cut-off to help the country economy.

Well, it's fair enough...but the thing that doesn't make sense is government sector worker salary had been increased and will be increase after this...the private sector worker salary had never been increased and government doesn't concern about their salary although this private sector are the contributor for the Malaysia income...government sector only involve in services such as collecting taxes...

It seem that, government had no problem to increase their employee salary and they will never had any problem with the fuel price...the private sector worker will keep dying under the fuel and goods price that keep increasing day to day....

So, is it the fuel price increment are fair to everyone...?

India is not a net exporter for oil so its understood for its price and the public transport system is really good there. However, in Malaysia, petrol go up to almost 78cents but public transport is crap! Everything is gonna go up, god bless us...

thats because other countries are selling fuel at market price (approx US$1.25 per liter) which is RM4 per liter, the actual cost of fuel.

Singapore, Thailand, Australia all has no fuel subsidy and allow fuel prices to flunctuate according to market forces.

It is not expensive if compared to the salary earned.

An engineer in Malaysia earns average RM1,800 a month, in Singapore average RM11,500 a month, in Thailand average RM3,000 a month and in India, a whopping average RM36,000 a month!!! That's about 20 times more than a Malaysian, 3 times more than a Singaporean, and 12 times more than a Thai.

So fuel in India at 51 rupee is nothing.

Effective 5/6/08, fuel in Malaysia is increased 40%.

I have a comparison chart in my blog. Read to understand.

There are better options than talking something that can be change easily like transport : bicycle , air car, battery scooter etc. Another thing I want to comment about this boys toys, can I sue Malaysia government for a legitimate billions for I think ethnic cleansing in Malaysia is possible due to very decent people and the indians looks almost identical and malaysia have first world facilities and tactics. The malays even threatened to make me as a stateless man if I dont be a military islam. The entrepreneur chinese malaysian r no better off in line with their suggestion due to the stories of Old Mac Donald have a farm etc etc not their flesh in pain and so on.
