The Badawi administration had promised that the subsidy money saved (RM9.9 billion) from the last petrol price increase will go to improve public transportation.
As far as I can see, the sorry state of affairs of the public transportation had not improved one bit. Where had the billions of Ringgit gone to and for what purpose?
On 4 June at the stroke of 12 midnight, the price of petrol was increased again by 41% by the Badawi administration – a jump of 78 sen, this time, to RM2.70 per liter. It’ll be a further net subsidy saving amounting to more billions and billions of Ringgit (RM13.7 billion a year estimated).
So the question for this week is: With the huge surplus received from the over-night increase in petrol price, where do you think the Badawi government should concentrate on its spending?
Pentadbiran Badawi telah berjanji bahawa wang yang dijimatkan (RM9.9 billion) menerusi pengurangan subsidi selaras dengan kenaikan harga minyak akan disalurkan kepada peningkatan sistem hubungan awam.
Pada permerhatian saya, keadaan sistem hubungan awam kita akan menyedihkan dan belum pernah menampakkan sebarang peningkatan. Ke manakah berbilion-bilion ringgit telah hilang dan untuk tujuan apa?
Pada tanggal 4 Jun tepat pukul 12 tengah malam, harga minyak dinaikkan lagi sebanyak 41% oleh pentadbiran Badawi – lonjatan 78 sen kepada RM2.70 selitre. Penjimatan wang subsidi akan berjumlah berbilion-bilion ringgit (RM13.7 billion setahun).
Oleh itu, soalan minggu ini adalah: Dengan wang berlebihan dan diterima daripada kenaikan harga minyak mendadak, ke manakah pentadbiran Badawi patut menyalurkan wang tersebut?
