Just heard something like we had secured a forward contract with an eastern block country with the oil price fixed at USD30/barrel for 20 years when the oil was hovering at that price some years ago.

ZhouYu, that USD11 crude oil price increase was a direct result of Israel statement yesterday (Friday) that they will not stand for a nuclear Iran and that war is an option that has not been riled out.
So, some F*@#&% opened their big stupid mouth and voiced out what every idiot with an sense would loved to do to Iran and the whole bloody world suffered for that remark. Kinda sounds like UMNO MPs too!

BN election manifesto “security, peace and prosperity” seems to be true. They will feel ‘secure’ , ‘piss off mind’ , and ‘prospered’ with the money they saved. Really a good manifesto! Salute!

It looks like after the currency attack on Asia after 1997, it’s oil attack now. It looks like they’re almost certain to succeed, due to our govt’s own greed

With a single analyst’s forecast, oil price shoot up $11 overnite.

Oil jumped following a Morgan Stanley analyst’s forecast of $150 oil by July 4, and in response to a drop in the dollar and fresh tensions in the Middle East.

Hey people, Najib did not say there is no fuel hike. “doesn’t necessarily mean price hike” means there is still a possibility of a hike. I suppose this only happens when BN retains the Federal Govt in the GE, of which it did. It was the reporter who said there’s no hike. Stop blaming Najib :)

Shopping in neighbour countries??
Maybe for Sarawakian living near Brunei, (Miri , Lutong), can buy petrol in Brunei, those near Indonesia border (on the way to Singkawang), can also get cheaper petrol from Indon.
Those near Thailand border, buy sundries (not petrol), but most important, buy a car without stupid AP & taxes (can govt allow this??)

How about planting padi on our rooftops as suggested by the great acheh strategist Sanusi Junid? (When the roof starts getting water-logged and leaking, just use the padi stalks to absorb the water)

It is no use protesting.Subsidy has given us the subsidy thinking which had protected us from the vagaries of price fluctuation which in turn made us lazy and not hardworking.Now the government wants to dismantle the subsidies to teach its citizen to learn to live within its means.Buy small cars, use public transport, eat simple food ( price of chicken will stabilise around RM12 once it is freed!),eat more vegetable and live in darkness.Grow vegetabldes around the house and in pots.Do not forget once income increases.Do not be lavish and pray more often :to reduce greed.The whole idea should be simple living and high thinking to wipe out what the UMNO led government had done to us.They never knew that the price of oil will soon touch US200 .Will our Arab brothers sell us oil at special price?No it will amount to begging This is an example of poor thinking.So stop protesting and start living!

This is what i got from my fowarded email…

Harga minyak sepanjang zaman.. (dalam masa 18 tahun – sejak 1990)

zaman Mahathir
sebelum 90 – RM 0.89
tahun 1990 – RM 1.10 (kenaikan RM 0.21)
01/10/2000 – RM 1.20 ( kenaikan RM 0.10)
20/10/2001 – RM 1.30 (kenaikan RM 0.10)
01/05/2002 – RM 1.32 ( kenaikan RM 0.02)
31/10/2002 – RM 1.33 (kenaikan RM 0.01)
01/03/2003 – RM 1.35 ( kenaikan RM 0.02)
zaman Pak Lah
01/05/2004 – RM 1.37 (kenaikan RM 0.02)
01/10/2004 – RM 1.42 ( kenaikan RM 0.05)
05/05/2005 – RM 1.52 (kenaikan RM 0.10)
31/07/2005 – RM 1.62 ( kenaikan RM 0.10)

28/02/2006 – RM 1.92 (kenaikan RM 0.30)
05/06/2008 – RM 2.70 (kenaikan RM 0.78)

Nota :
(Skrip dulu-dulu)

1. Kenaikan minyak masih rendah berbanding mana2 pun negara ASEAN.

2. Kerajaan akan pastikan kenaikan tidak membebankan

3. Kerajaan tidak mampu lagi menampung subsidi.

4. Kerajaan memberi jaminan harga runcit petroleum tidak akan dinaikkan lagi pada TAHUN INI.

(Skrip sekarang dan akan datang)
1. Rakyat mestilah mengamalkan hidup jimat cermat.
2. Kita akan memastikan harga bahan api antara yg terendah dirantau ini berbanding Singapura dan Thailand .
3. Bila kita susah, kenalah sama-sama susah, bila masa senang, ‘kita saling membantu’.
4. Penjimatan subsidi RM13.7 billion ‘dipulangkan balik pada rakyat’.
5. Langkah ini adalah ‘situasi menang-menang’.

Not sure how much good it will be but let’s all BOYCOTT pumping at Petronas Stations IMMEDIATELY !!! Unless when want to go for piss there.

It’s time gov allow to bring in the hybrids openly. There should not be any tax on vehicles that are enviromentaly friendly. Both Honda & Toyota already have hybrids past 5 years. Gov sing about being pro-active. Bullshit hypocrisy. We have been shortchanged for far too long by BN gov.

I really don’t care if fuel price increase provided the government take the money and do something useful to us people. They keep compares our fuel price with others. What for? If really want to compares, look at how Singapore runs its country. Singapore has no crude oil, no land to plant pineapple, rubber trees, palm oil, rice, We have tin mines, sand , timber…yet not enough to feed our people? Where the money all goes?? How singapore do it really make me feel ashame
