Even before Pak Lah got the ilham to announce when is the 12th General Election, we, Rakyat that living in Malaysia already felt the General Erection and it has been erected for months, not even has the intention to ......
Last week, a 2kg pack of Milo sell at RM33 ++ in I - Department store. Initially i tought that Dept Store always sell at high price as what we always think. Blardy hell, until i went to shop at J - Dept Store last Saturday, the value buy 2kg Milo sell at ~ RM29. Purchase with Purchase sell at RM 23.90.
Nia mah, even milk powder for my son also increase ~RM 10 / 1.8kg tin. Previously i can buy at RM 65/tin, now J Dept Store sell at ~RM 75/tin. 700g Refil pack increase to RM29.90 (value buy) compared to ~RM 24.90 previously. For this item, I - Dept Store selling cheap, i am still able to buy it at RM 65.99 (1.8 kg tin) last week. Thinking of sapu another 1 tin for this month.
Flour increase 60c in a month (October). As to sustain the Roti Canai & bread business, all the price transfer to end users like us. Roti Canai in Penang increase 20c to 80c per piece, mee goreng up 30c to RM3.80. All roti up from 20c to more than RM1. CPO (Crude Palm Oil) hit RM 2900/mt last week trading for Jan 2008. All the millers laughing to bank now, heard that they are getting 6 months bonus due to ever long lasting Erection of CPO. But, how about us?
Petroleum per barrel hit USD 96 last week, another fear factor that going to scare us, but we still have few weeks time before we feel the heat. It will only happen after General Election (then follow by another round General Erection). Be Prepare (Scout Motto) for dearer cooking gas and subsequently more expensive dinner when you having it outside. Start 1st January 2008, another Erection going to hit all of us. Eight (8) blardy toll going to increase. PLUS is one of them, Penang Bridge is another one. These money-earning-like-hell companies keep on robbing money from us. For example, PLUS expand the road from 2 lanes to 3 lanes at Ipoh - Rawang, Senawang - Melaka, and extending thier toll colection beyond 2038. Who is the contructor for the expansion plan? One of the UEM subsidiary, UEM Construction. So they earn one part in the construction and transfer the cost to road users by extending the toll collection. Who carry out the road maintenance? Propel, another subsidiary of UEM. This is all the Left Pocket to right Pocket story, and we, road users bear the cost until anak cucu kita.
