And lo and behold, the 6th July 2008 issue of Mingguan Malaysia reported the Secretary General of the Domestic Trade and Industry as saying that the Govt is paying the COMMISSION amounting to RM500 million which should logically be paid by the multinational oil companies who have been making billions of dollars in profits, to petrol station dealers. Why should our taxpayers money be utilized to pay commission to these petrol station dealers?!!! This is utter mismanagement of our tax money. Hope YB Lim Kit Siang and your colleagues will bring this matter up in Parliament.

Today I read in the Sun papers quoting The Second Finance Minister Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop in saying ” Petronas does not monopolised the natural gas for vehicles industry. It is teh other petrol comnpanies which are not keen to enter this field because the price is controlled at 68 cts per litre while the market price is RM 3.11″

1. Let me tell The 2nd Finance Minister that he do not know the price of NGV now. It is at about RM 1.10 in the world market today and not RM 3.11.

2. He never tell you that Petronas collect royalty on behalf of the goverment which is not right. What they make as profit is not profit but royalty. They have no right to spend it. It belongs to the rakyat.

3. We are one of the large Natural gas producer in the world. We export most of our natural gas so other countries can enjoy the cheaper gas for use and build up their industries using cheaper fuel alternative while we Malaysian have none or not enought for own use.

4. On NGV and biodiesel for cars, even a non oil producing country like Thailand is well ahead of us. They have much much more NGV filling station that us and Gasohol which is the alternative to bio fuel for vehicle. Are we sleeping or are we not telling the truth to the rakyat ?.

No wonder the rakyat protest. Petronas is only keen to collect the taxes and feed the politician. They never invest in anything that benefit the rakyat. You think of what they have given u so far……………….. NOTHING

you are wrong again. it is my buttock to your cheek. you never learn, best of both worlds.

Seriously, whether the protest results in return or not is not so important. For those who have missed the carnival, they wouldn’t know the real feeling of the crowds. They’re from different race and place but they walk to each others. This is a sign of unity as a true Malaysian.

Of course we can’t stop the global oil price increased but neither yours whose only talk cock here. (The PR wanted to wake up those who’re still sleeping)

Furthermore, it’s very sad that Malaysian nowadays don’t even have the freedom to talk. What other you can expects from the current government to improve the education, economy and other from their colony microstructure & management.

So you suggest that we all sweat it out, and let the thieves get away with dipping their hands in the public coffers ?

With every dollar increase in oil price, Petronas makes additional millions, so what do you suggest that we do with the money ?

At least right now, it is fact, the crude oil price have touched US$150 per barrel, as compared to US$40 per barrel not too long ago.

There is no purpose to demonstarte or protest in public about the hike, every one knows.

Move on and find ways to adapt to the new reality. There is no two ways about it.

What is the solutions by demonstrating and protesting? The price of oil won’t come down, the price of crude won’t come down.

The price of crude oil is expected to move further up. All should wake up to the new reality and stop day dreaming that manna will drop from the sky. If you do NOT sweat it out, you will NOT get to enjoy the fruit of labour of others.

All these huha are chasing the foreign investors away, no tourists will want to come to visit the country. Your hospitality industry will go bust sooner and later. Who will suffer the most as result of these so called protestors? They themselves and the poor.

If AAB serious about listening & helping the rakyat, where the fuel-price hike is concerned, just have to abolish all tolls & private owned road-tax (but not insurance) for cars below 2000cc (petrol) & 2500cc (diesel) immediately. Bigger capacity cars consume more fuel, thus, if that’s the case, they should pay more for the ‘luxury’. Why wait for 2months to come out with report on Toll? It should be done in 1 week. Is it that difficult to realize the problem? Then our government is blind with all the $ from corruption.

The government made a decision to increase the fuel price overnight but need 2 months to study the after effects. Wow, how brilliant. We have geniuses in the cabinet. It is also not clear how the savings of RM 50B will benefit the rakyat. How will these RM 50B saved will be generated back into the economy? Wouldn’t be the same if it were in the hands of the rakyat? But rather, the government has taken it from our hands by controlling what we should do with it, for their personal benefit.

and towards the PM or DPM position let the nation votes them out on GE13 and i belief that BN will be totally wiped off on the next round.

all the best the nation can clamped on the government .

We need people force….

the effect from the previous mass protest rally does not hits the point at all. The turn out was poor at kelana jaya.

I should suggest that all three coalition parties launch a mass rally simultaneously on the same day and i will belief that there will be more then 3 million or more off public walk out on the street to protest.

I should suggest a major protest from three coalition PR force at one go … no red , no white….only a normal civilian attires will do …

Please keep us inform on the net …..

All the best…

Listen people, this clearly tells the people all pre-protests threats are meant to keep people away, to instil fear into people so that they stay away, and in the aftermath, it gives Najib and company the opportunity to say that the protest was “a failure”.

What this tells the rakyat is obvious isn’t it? Any future protests, the govt no longer has the confidence to enforce threats of water/chemical cannons, etc, onto rakyat.

Malaysia is now in the forefront in international news, and non-constitutional handling of protesters will further cast the Barisan govt in more negative perspective in foreign eyes.

Definitely a change in the govt policy on “illegal” assemblies! Move on PR, the BN govt is “on hold”!

Are we at all surprised? If C.4 was easy, what’s the problem, this one’s kacang!

Today at 21: 35.59 (1 hour ago)
“Ohhhh, I missed it!”

Which one? The buttock or the concert?? Or just both cheeks?

“KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 (Bernama) — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi wants bloggers to stop speculating and spreading rumours on the Internet as this is another cause of the unsettled political situation in the country. “I want to tell the blogs to stop all these as they are also responsible for what has happened. The best thing they could do is to stop,” he told reporters after holding several bilateral meetings on the sidelines of the 6th D-8 Heads of Government Summit here Monday.”

“All Internet and cyber cafes will have to close by midnight daily when new guidelines to control theses businesses are enforced soon, said Deputy Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Hamzah Zainuddin. ”

“July 7 (Bernama) — The Housing and Local Government Ministry plans to require cyber cafe operators submit the names of school students who come to their premises to the ministry every month. ”

Can you see where this is heading towards. Slow and steady, bit by bit, the clamp is coming….!!

Please read “Don’t misjudge us silent majority” letter to Malaysiakini which is very true. In many of my post here I am trying to make you see how the silent majority feel but not to any success. Many of your bloggers here does not have responsibility, for them nothing to loss. But for us we have to feed the mouth.

I shudder to think what will happen to Malaysia’s economy with another 5 years of Badawi and his cronies…
