Kita Pulak Bagi Subsidi Kepada Kerajaan

It's not my intention to talking about politics in this blog but one article grabbed from www.tranungkite.net is really interesting to let people know

Oleh remboe

"Assalamu alaikum dan salam sejahtera,

Sedar atau tidak, dalam pada semua menunggu pertukaran kerajaan kita sebenarnya telah memberi subsidi secara tak langsung kepada kerajaan Pak Lah dengan membayar harga minyak yang lebih dari sepatutnya.

Setakat artikel ini ditulis, harga minyak dunia sudah jatuh ke paras USD 92.7 setong. Kerajaan Malaysia pimpinan Pak Lah yang masih lagi dalam kekalutan politik sekali lagi membelakangkan kepentingan rakyat dengan tidak mengambil apa-apa tindakan yang drastik di atas penurunan harga minyak semasa dunia ini.

Janji telah ditabur dan dicanang kepada rakyat bahawa kerajaan akan memberi subsidi hanya 30 sen per liter kepada rakyat bermakna rakyat hanya akan dapat penjimatan harga minyak sebanyak 30 sen dengan setiap liter yang dibelanjakan untuk memenuhi tangki kenderaan masing-masing. Tapi adakah janji yang dibuat oleh kabinet Pak Lah itu relevan dengan keadaan semasa??Adakah ianya digunapakai oleh Menteri jaga harga minyak, Datuk Shahrir Samad?? Jika mengikut perkiraan mudah, dengan harga minyak sekarang sebenarnya membuatkan rakyat pula yang memberi subsidi kepada kerajaan.

Perkiraan mudahnya seperti di bawah :-

1 barrel(tong) = 159 liter
1 USD = RM 3.45 (converter di sini)
harga minyak semasa = USD92.7 setong (rujuk sini)

Dulu USD145 x 3.3 (Rate semasa) / 159 liter = RM3 – RM0.30 (Subsidi) = RM2.70
Skrg USD93 x 3.45 (Rate semasa) / 159 liter = RM2 – RM0.30 (Subsidi) = RM1.70

Kerajaan jual => RM2.55
Harga tanpa subsidi => RM2.00
Kita tanggung kerajaan = RM0.55 per liter.

Mengikut perkiraan mudah ini, harga minyak tanpa subsidi di Malaysia adalah RM2.00 seliter. Kerajaan menjual kepada rakyat dengan harga RM2.55 seliter. Bermakna rakyatlah yang memberi subsidi kepada kerajaan sebanyak 55 sen seliter. Berapa banyak agaknya kerajaan dapat dengan mengekalkan harga minyak RM2.55 sen seliter ini? Dan Pak Shahrir, menteri jaga harga minyak berkata bahawa harga minyak akan diturunkan sebelum Aidilfitri sebanyak 15 sen lagi kepada RM2.40.

Dengan harga ini pun, rakyat masih lagi memberi subsidi kepada kerajaan sebanyak 40 sen. Siapa yang tolong siapa? rakyat ke yang tolong kerajaan atau pun kerajaan tolong rakyat??? Jangan asyik nak pergi melawat sana-sini, tapi rakyat dibiarkan sengsara menanggung kesan kenaikan melampau harga minyak beberapa bulan lalu.

Bangkitlah Pak Lah dari lena. Kapal dah nak karam pun masih lagi lena dibuai mimpi. Mana janjimu dengan mengatakan pilih BN akan menjadikan SELAMAT, AMAN, MAKMUR? Ayuh rakyat Malaysia, bangkit menentang penipuan kerajaan BN pimpinan Pak Lah!!!

Ingat!!!! kamu pemimpin....sama ada kita membuat sejarah, ataupun kita yang akan menjadi sejarah......Renungkan!!!!!

Sonic Array 2000

Sonic Array 2000, product by Sonic Gear has been introduced by Leapfrog Distribution Sdn Bhd.

This hot favourite speaker also making waves in the audio industry with its remarkable performance.

In contrast with the big and mighty Sonic Array is the tiny, nifty EarPump. At first sight, you might mistake the EarPump for just another Ear-canal earplug, but the dropped-jaw and wide-eyed expressions on the face of our consumers give the game away.

With Clarity and Power which has a striking resemblance to that of similar products costing 5-10times more, the EarPump hops away from its competition, dressed in 9 fancy iPod colours and a matching carrying-case.

Mobile Number Portability

I had mixed feeling about Mobile Number Portability (MNP), which just began in Malaysia.

It was interesting move by implementing such system so that people get more choices on their hand.

I personally found that the implementation of MNP is rite on track especially when I had plan on my mind to change my telco… hehehe.

When I was interviewing Celcom (Malaysia) Bhd CEO, officer Datuk Seri
Shazalli Ramly last week to get his comment about MNP, he confident that Celcom’s customer will strongly maintain with them.

This confident statement based on services provided by them include widest network, contents etc.

NST on 29/08/2008 reports

CELULAR phone companies can charge up to RM25 each time a subscriber
decides to change their operators under the mobile number portability
(MNP) service.
MNP, which will start in the Klang Valley on a limited basis today,
lets users change operators but keep their numbers.
"MNP takes away the inconvenience associated with switching service
providers," said Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor, the Energy, Water and
Communications Minister, in a statement released yesterday.
Starting today, the service is available to prepaid users, followed by
postpaid user in the middle of September.
The nationwide launch of MNP is in October. The service is also
available to individual account users first, followed by those on
business accounts in October. Until the nationwide launch, each operator
can only accept 100 MNP requests a day.
"Mobile phone users are advised not to rush into it but should first
study the various packages being offered before choosing the new service
provider of their choice," Shaziman said.
Those who are keen to sign up for MNP should contact any of the mobile
service providers, he added.
There are also frequently-asked-questions on MNP at the ministry's
website, www.skmm.gov.my.
