Increasing of Petrol prices

Hey there,

Well as we all know, the fuel prices has been increased. Everyone is feeling the pinch or getting a hole in thier pocket. There are pros and cons in every situation, but unfortunatly for this situation the cons are more then the pros.

Lets start with the pros,

A survey has been done, and since the price hike the usage of personal cars has decreased and the usage of public transport has increased. Carpooling which was introduced years ago due to polution dint really catched our attention, but now friends and family are doing it to save consumption of petrol which is fairly expensive. Now less polution is happening so its a good thing right?

Now the cons,

The increase of petrol prices has also increased the prices of our daily materials. Prices for almost everything is increasing. Riots has occured infront of of KLCC



























































Im not very sure why did the goverment increase it, but we just hope they wont increase it more. As already the economy is quite bad, with the increase of fuel prices its making it worst.
People's thinking now is only on how to save petrol and how to use it lesser. Most of the food stalls and hawker stalls increased their prices due to petrol price hike. But as for the fast food restraunts, instead of increasing prices they decrease the ingredients.
