Ok people...guess the government is really telling us one thing "Stay at home more often, don't drive out unneccesarily" or better still "Don't try to show off by driving cars around town". Read the latest Star
Really don't know how to survive anymore...Monthly salary is not even enough to cover for petrol, car and soon the increase in utility. Sigh....might as well stay at home...since it will cost me less, no need to pump petrol, no need to pay for car and as for the utility lei, just buy kerosene lamp lor...but next problem arised - kerosene price also naik...double sigh
One consolation nia from the announcement - we are getting an annual cash rebate of RM652 for vehicle less than 2,000cc (At this point, I am so glad I don't own any big car). After calculate calculate, with the rebate included, the increase does not sound that scary anymore. Just that we have to forked out cash advance in pumping petrol before we are able to get the rebate. (FYI, rebate will only be forwarded to you once you renew your annual road tax)
This system reminds me of the Income Tax. You are asked to pay first, then get refund later. And Yes, same rule apply for the petrol - U PAY NOW, REBATE WILL COME BUT DON'T KNOW WHEN.
SIGHHHHHHHHH....

Perhaps I would be able to sell off my tandem bike easily now that petrol price has gone up so drastically. Don't have to buy 3 bikes, just get one tandem bike.... :-) Junoesque

And then sell off yr camry cos you will definitely not entitled to the cash rebate (camry is more than 2000cc)
How to survive like dat??
according to calculation, the RM625 rebate isn't enough to compensate my fuel usage.
before - 50 bucks, now i need 70++ for 26 litres.
Fortunately my Camry is 1998 c.c. so still entitled to rebates - not that the amount is that great! :-)

It is really high
The rebate is not that significant and everyone wants to know what are they doing with the money from the subsidy
I think I seriously need to shed off those pounds by cycling
Goober
Exactly...and to make matter worst, we have to forked out the money in advance for petrol and only get to see the miserable rebate after 1 year
