Today I have a completely different topic. The price of gasoline. A liter of super cost you currently Rupia 2500. These are little more than 20 cents. The price of gasoline consumption for the population here are fixed by the state and subsidized. The current price is only since April. Before it was about 1600th
Slowly but now the government is out of money. The total amount of subsidies for the year is determined. Back in June, they have noticed that more fuel is consumed, as planned. Then there is the problem that the world price of oil has risen so steadily. In July, then made an attempt to regulate the consumption by the fact that they delivered less fuel to filling stations. The result was chaos. Now you have struggled through to increase the price of gasoline. And while much of liters of premium cost will be about 4000 Rupia.
The whole was given at the beginning of the week known. It should apply from 1 October (Saturday). Now you have to know that the price of petrol here is probably still a hotter topic than in Germany. The increase may well mean that the government will not survive the weekend. Since yesterday, is already in the city no longer possible for normal locomotion (as far as this city is all about . Demonstrations by taxi drivers, bus drivers, motorists, riders. To a lot of police and military in the city. Alone, the presidential palace is secured with 1200 men. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next few days here or Sun
The announcement of the price increase it has some interesting side effects. On the one hand, of course, many people try it again to fill car with cheap petrol. Alone leads to huge queues at petrol stations. There are also people who buy up as much fuel as possible and then sell on. Since you can not stand in line must a liter costs about 7000 Rupia. Also, the stuff can be so profitable and as of Saturday tickets. All this leads to it is quite difficult at the moment, even to buy gasoline. In some parts of the country, it is probably impossible for several days. For more information, if anyone is interested, there is here .
