Petrol down, food prices remain up.

The little by little reduction of fuel prices by the Pak Lah Administration failed to trigger the reduction of food items which when up because of the fuel increase recently. The rampant increase in food prices was initiated by the narrow minded and hasty decision to hike fuel prices. The Admistration even have the audacity to declare there is no increase in food items. What blatant disregard for the welfare of the Rakyat. They created the problem, we suffer and they cannot do anything to solve it. A Half Past Six and Nincompoop Administration confirmed.

We ’re rather disappointed that the prices of goods and services and, especially, the prices of food items have not come down . What can we, the consumers, need to do to influence the prices of essential goods and foods.

The Government failed and hopelessly inactive to act against the traders.What we should do is simply refuse to patronise the shops and food outlets that are known to be reluctant to reduce prices. Spread this word to other consumer and see who's more powerful. Definitely not the Government. Period.

The consumers are more powerful. Rightly so. Eat at home, save more and make the traders suffer. Act now, show them Who's The Boss.

1 piece of roti canai Pak Lah is still 90sen. Reason: because flour prices up. Because: Diesel price up. It look as though they fry roti canai using Diesel. Now, what happen? Diesel down, roti canai stay the same or waiting for another price increase. Any explanation?. Well in the days of the Hereafter please be prepare to explain to Allah, if you prefer not to do it here. Shame on you.
