It’s the end of the month, and as usual, “news” about impending fuel price hikes have gone viral. Today, we have seen one saying that the price of RON 95 petrol will go up by 15 sen, with a 20 sen increase for RON 97 and diesel.
UPDATE: Good news! Fuel prices for the month of August 2015 have been announced, and it turns out that the cost of all grades of fuel have been cut by 10 sen. As such, come midnight, RON 95 petrol will be priced at RM2.05 per litre, RON 97 petrol at RM2.45 per litre (inclusive of 6% GST), diesel at RM1.95 and Euro 5 diesel at RM2.05.
The Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry has come out to urge the public to not be influenced by such rumours, the New Straits Times reports. The KPDNKK’s new minister, Datuk Hamzah Zainudin, said his ministry was not involved in pricing the fuel. “The ministry does not decide the new price for RON95, RON97 and diesel.
PENAFIANUntuk makluman, pihak KPDNKK tidak pernah mengeluarkan sebarang kenyataan berkenaan perubahan harga baru…

“We at the ministry give our input and look in terms of acceptance whether the price of petrol and diesel should increase or not. Hence, we do not know the new price (of fuel) as claimed by certain parties,” he told reporters today.
The retail price for petrol and diesel is set by the Finance Ministry using a managed float system. Under the system, retail prices will be based on the monthly average global price of crude oil. KPDNKK used to announce fuel prices at the end of every month, but that has stopped since June, announced by former minister Datuk Hasan Malek.

Tips u sementara, naik kemudian
Scariest thing at the end of the month.
with the currency drop and change in management, I believe the petrl and diesel will increase more than 15 cents per liter.
You see people like you always scare others away. People like you which in my opinion like to spray rumours.
doesn’t matter what you want to say. I fuel up my car already. If price increase, I manage to save few KM,
but if the price maintain or reduce, why bother…
Natural born duck head….
Not Me.. It you .. no.. no .. Not us .. Its them …
And the blame game continues …
While “WE” the stupids who put YOU idiots up there continue to suffer !!
This is why these people dont know how to do work.

You dont want people to discuss then you hide matters

More like BN thank you for your stupidity. Pray hard for our EPF money.
Increase or not there is nothing anyone can do in this communist country. They do what they want, when they want.. they don’t need the consent from the rakyat.. who the hell is the rakyat? Useless whiners in social media are all the rakyat is good for… well apart from their monetart contribution that they cam suck into 1mdb which is the only thing the rakyat is good for… and if you don’t like it then shup up, go live somewhere else.. this country belongs to jib
Shhh… They want it to be a surprise.
The only way to squash the rumor is by telling the TRUTH.
If you don’t want tell you, we are only left guessing
I more prefer not to trust you KPDNKK. Some more what is the different if people know bout the fuel price after 12.01am? The fuel price already hike!!
Lol….familiar statement…i think they all jib jib style now…
They never deny they know whether price is going up or down..just deny that they make statement…..sound familiar? Never deny money go into account…just deny it is for personal gain…
Lol. Of course fuel price will go down right now, Jibby needs to quell some public tension.
The all benevolent, all democratic Prime Minister of Malaysia, our saviour!
Moan and groan. Moan and groan. Bodoh.
The fact is the price went down 10 cents for RON97, RON95 and ADO. Stop believing everything you see, hear or read without studying the rumors you see, hear or read first. For Muslims, it is a must to find out the actual fact whenever a Muslim sees, hears or reads up about a rumor. :)
The govt is probably spamming social media with false information to discredit it. We will never believe ANYTHING the govt says.
