Petrol Price Increase to RM2.70 a litre

Is that true ???? RM2.70 /litre??


Effective midnight tonight, the price for each litre of petrol will go up by 78 cents, about 40 % increase from RM1.92 to RM2.70. SMS was flying everywhere. The news spread in seconds.

At first I felt doubt about the SMS, because this morning paper headlines just showing it will only happened in August. And, people all discussing about the floating price application. Who know in the same day the price will go up? Somemore about 40% increased!

About 6:15pm, when passing through down town, found that the town was extremely flooded with vehicles, especially the entrance road to Petrol Station, doesn't matter Shell, Petronas or Mobil station. People queuing up rushing for the petrol, and the scene was like car queuing up in Spielberg's movie "War of the World". The tense was undescribable.
