rm2.70/ltr

Yuuhuuu! So, how are things going on? I bet not so good since the petrol price increase recently. Higher fuel prices mean higher transportation costs...meaning higher cost of everything else lah. Its common-sense that with the recent hike-ups, you can expect that everything now is going to increase. :( This is what we called inflation. I still remember when I was in my final semester in UiTM, back in 2006... the inflation rate was about 2.5% and the global fuel price was $60/barrel. By that time $60/barrel was like...gilaaaa mahal! Now, after only 2 years, global fuel price is about $125/barrel and the Government reminds us to brace ourselves for a hike in inflation rate! 5% - 6% next month! Menakutkannn!

Then, there you go...pin-point to the Govt. hehe. The reality is...the price of fuel is always going to go up, and subsidies never going to be enough. As our "beloved" PM told us to do...change our lifestyle. Hmmm...lifestyle apa kah ohh? Even before this we live our life "sedang-sedang" ajak bahh. "They" are the ones who should change their lifestyles. Duhh!
