Govt announced that they might increase the petrol price on June 2011, then suddenly...they change their announcement where they will not be increasing petrol price for now. The citizen was glad about the news, but it is shortlive only.
Actually we got tricked!! As the electricity cost increase by 7.12, from 31.31 kilowatt hour (kWh) to 33.54 sen effective on 01/06/2011. These consumers will enjoy the old rate at between 21.8 sen and 33.4 sen.
As stated The new rate however will not affect 75% of domestic users whose consumption is less than 300kWh per month. Who are the 75% of domestic users?
If you think the 25% comprises of manufacturing and retailers sector only, where it will not "affect" the domestic, then govt seriously not saying the truth. Putting icing on the cake, telling us this??
Can the govt 100% guarantee with their life that it is will not affect the so call "75%"? :P

After election, they will announce again...petrol price will increase due to the unbearable burden of the susidy needed to pay. The mindset of today's generation are different from previously. You cannot brainwash us with pitiful words of unable to bear everything.
