I still remember the PM being interviewed on tv after reducing the price of petrol by a WHOPPING 15 sens. You could see him smiling as if that was a killer blow that was surely to bring his ratings up. It is either that or he is so removed from reality.
Anyway he went on asking for businesses to follow suit. Businesses must not only be quick to raise their prices, they should also be willing to bring down prices when the government brings down the price of fuel. He had that 'look how clever I am' look when he made that urge.
He seems to have forgotten that as PM he is in fact the head of all GLCs and Tenaga is one blood-sucking GLC that would do his biddings should he decide to.
I know it is only 15 sens but Tenaga should also follow suit by reducing their tarrif by a sen or 2 per unit. That is only fair. They increase their charges when fuel prices went up but kept mum when petrol and diesel goes down. Now that is not the right way for a corporate citizen to behave especially one that is directly linked to the government.
I heard rumours that there will be another round of petrol and diesel price decrease and with that the total decrease would be more than 15 sens; all the more reason for Tenaga to reduce their tarrif.
Did I hear someone say "Who said the price of petrol and diesel is going to be further reduced"? Its just a rumour in this land of rumour come true. Anyway, Singapore and many other countries, non oil producing ones, have reduced theirs more than once so why shouldn't we be keeping up with the Jones?
Hey you better do it fast otherwise Singapore's oil price would be cheaper than ours so how the hell are you going to use the oft used excuse that 'but we are still cheaper than Singapore'?
Anyway, if I remember correctly, they said that they preferred to raise the price by a big percentage to raising it bit by bit so that businesses could come to grips with reality sooner.
Why is it so when you want to raise prices but chose to do it bit by bit when it comes to lowering it? Wouldn't it be better for bussinesses to adjust to one big drop than to keep on adjusting to many small drops?
Oh by the way, tomorrow is Budget Day. Remember last year, you did not give the civil servants any bonus? You were very sombong right up to election day and the civil servants returned your arrogance with a change of heart come election day?
You see, they were angry because when you said that the government was concerned with inflation should you hand out bonuses, they were actually hoping for that bonus to keep up with inflation.
You promised no school fees so parents spent school fees money on something else and when school reopened there was indeed school fees, in fact parents had to pay more. That got them a little bit uptight and when Cuepacs said that they were hopeful that you would give an honorarium the civil servants were more hopeful and still you let them down and thus they punished you by contributing to the March 8 Tsunami.
I am saying all this because there is still time to change certain things here and there before tomorrow. Not that it is going to make a lot of difference because your past indifference had inflicted a deep wound in their hearts, but you see Raya is coming soon and cookies and cakes and ketupats, not to mention, mutton, chicken and beef and Basmati and broken rice is much much much more expensive than last year.
Ooops! I hope that I am not giving you ideas about how to get back at civil servants.

Cikgu, do not hope for magic from this clueless and useless PM. He's not only stupid but arrogant. I used to envy him especially when he's from our state, hopeful that something BIG would come to us. Yes a big thing did come to us...a BIG shame. I thought Mr Clean means "Bersih", actually it means "Sapu or Sapu Bersih". That's what he and his family is doing now. Worst PM Malaysia ever had.
Cikgu, Anon 19:37 is dead right. He's harsh but that's the truth. Pak Lah’s incompetence failed him. He should have used the high mandate received in 2004 to sweep clean the legacy of TDM. He failed miserably. That showed his incompetence in many ways, too much sleep, slow and wasting time. He does not read and talk, mumble jumbled like a small kid. No charisma. It is not AAB to be honest. Right now, Pak Lah pack your bags and leave…..and take Najib along. We do not want the ghost of Altantuya to haunt Malaysia. Thanks Anon and Cikgu for being blunt and brave.

a WHOPPING 15 sen drop...muahahahaha...
that was a real joke and the timing couldnt be more perfect than during campaigning period. well, i guess people are more matured now than say, in 2004. when they are fed with ang paus and baja taik lembu, it takes a fool to decline the goodies. undi sape up to voters...
another round of petrol price to drop? a whopping 5 sen and they'll brag for months.
Salam Cikgu,
Back during the KL Commonwealth Games, the gomen increased cigarette price by .20 cents just to partly finance the games.
When gomen increased the oil price, they said it is to reduce the subsidy. Going by that then, our current price is above market even after reducing it by 15cents. Q: Who the hell is gaining from the difference now: the gomen or someone else?
ala c'mon a measly 15 sen..Giant turunkan harga tiap-tiap bulan by a whopping RM1 what..Mydin jangan cerita la..
I am incensed with this blood sucker Tenaga.
