Fuel Prices Up Again for the Nth times
Ouch! Fuel prices up again. Greedy oil firms raised the price with additional 1 peso per liter for gasoline, and 1.50 pesos for diesel. Has this no end? every week fuel prices goes up. And some says it will hit the PhP 60/liter mark.
As long as we are highly dependent on oil, we’ll continue to suffer from this crisis. And what is our government doing? Barking on the wrong tree again! (for the nth times). They should leave MERALCO alone. The real problem is this oil companies. Dapat nilang kastiguhin ang mga ito. But what is the government doing with them? NOTHING!!!! They just said, we should accept the fact that this will go on. BULLSHIT!!!!
They have the power in the first place. There are many measures as what our Senators are doing. REMOVE THE VAT IN OIL PRICES! We should rally behind our Senators and support their fight.
BRING BACK OIL PRICE STABILIZATION FUND!!! BRING BACK OIL SUBSIDY!!!
THAT’S THE ONLY SOLUTION!

yes, malacanang, the senate, and the congress as well as the consumer groups are definitely barking on the wrong tree. instead of witch-hunting in the meralco management, they should focus more on how to address the issue in oil prices. it can be the oil price stabilization fund in the short term but they must look in to programs reducing our reliance in oil. dapat nga, they divest the government and all elected officials of vehicles that are not fuel efficient and consume lots of gasoline. they should give up their luxury vehicles!!!!!!

amen to that strygwyr! (thanks for the very first comment)
you’ve got one good point there. remove all non-efficient gov’t vehicles. if i may add, they should reduce the number of gov’t vehicles. madalas kasi gamit lang ito pang service ng mga anak nila, asawa, katulong, KERIDA.
and i’ve seen this red plates at night sa mga malls at nightclubs (at may mga escorts pa lalo na pag pupunta ng Air Force 1). minsan nga makakakita ka ambulance nakapark sa malls. ang dami jan sa megamall.
tama ka jan. our gov’t officials should set an example. DO NOT USE LUXURY VEHICLES!

This gas crisis is so out of hand, that I’ve resorted to drastic measures. Recently I converted my 04 Cadillac to utilize water as fuel from an easy to install kit, I obtained online from a company called Water4fuel.info
