[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 291328, member: 15"] Malaysians should prepare themselves for higher fuel prices in the future, this is inevitable, given the fact that oil is a non-renewable source of energy. There is no doubt that subsidies dulled the competitiveness of this country and also promote wastages and with this increase everyone will has no choice but to [I]mengubahkan gaya hidup masing masing.[/I] With the 40% fuel price increase, I wish to ask the government to [I]mengubah cara pentadbiran dan mengurangkan korupsi, kronisme dan nepotisme. [/I]Spending RM 250 for a set of screw drivers, RM 4.6 billion for a white elephant in Port Klang, RM 21 million for the Selangor state exco village in Shah Alam and etc are not good examples of good governance. If subsidy is indeed bad, please stop giving millions to Proton in the guise of R&D grant (latest is RM190 million). It is time for Proton to face the world and stand on their own two feet. Our car industry should be liberalised!!! Likewise, please remove/reduce exorbitant duties on our cars and promote fuel efficient cars like the Honda/Toyota hybrids, those with the latest diesel engines (120d and 320d is selling like hot cakes in Europe) and allow other petrol companies to sell natural gas, not forgetting improving our fuel quality!! Also, the promise of improving the public transport by DPM during the last petrol price hike (RM 4 billion saved) remains as what it is, A PROMISE, albeit an empty one. Many Malaysians would love to mengubah gaya hidup and take public transport to work, but given the sad state of affairs, many have no choice but to drive to work. [/QUOTE]
