How? <BR/><BR/>Example, lets use a Viva which mileage is 12-15km to 1 litre of petrol. Total consumption per month 67 litres at old price 1.92 you pay RM128.64. With the new 2.70you pay RM180.90. Hence your fuel extra cost is 180.90 - 128.64 = RM52.26<BR/><BR/>Then there is the RM52 cash rebate our gomen give us. Which means in this example, one stands to still be paying at about old fuel price RM1.92<BR/><BR/>With 67 litre, the Viva can travel about approx 700-730km (agak2 boleh dapat mileage 12km to 1 liter)<BR/><BR/>just a thot!<BR/><BR/>Hanim<BR/>Kota DamansaraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1986492775396304922.post-81745374650558645892008-06-17T10:19:00.000+08:002008-06-17T10:19:00.000+08:00sure, lets not begrudge them. they deserve all the...sure, lets not begrudge them. they deserve all the goodies having worked very hard for it. and you must be thankful to this govt. that being a net exporter nation, the price of petrol is higher than some net oil importing nations.<BR/>surely, thats a herculean effort and for this their entertainment expenses and all expense paid holidays must be reinstated.<BR/>thank you BN.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
