September 2017 week one fuel prices – it’s up, up, up

Yes, Wednesday has come along once again, so it’s time for another round of weekly fuel price updates. There’s a long weekend coming, but citizens won’t be cheering the fact that fuels will be slightly more expensive across the board.

Come August 31, RON 95 petrol will be priced at RM2.16 per litre (one sen up from RM2.15 last week), while RON 97 petrol is priced at RM2.44 per litre (also one sen up from RM2.43 last week).

As for Euro 2M diesel, it now retails at the pump for RM2.04 per litre (regaining the three sen it lost last week, when it was priced at RM2.01 per litre) this week, while Euro 5 diesel will go for RM2.14 per litre (also up three sen from RM2.11 per litre last week). These prices take effect from midnight until September 6, when the next round of fuel prices will be announced.

This is the 23rd weekly fuel pricing update since the system’s implementation on March 30. Compared to March 2017 prices, which was before weekly pricing took effect, RON 95 is down by 14 sen (from RM2.30 per litre), RON 97 by 16 sen (RM2.60 per litre) and Euro 2M diesel by 16 sen (from RM2.20 per litre).

  • This doesn’t make any sense really. Based on the graphs, prices has been down steadily over the past 3 weeks, and why is ours on the rise? Furthermore, our FOREX against USD has been gaining. So what’s the reason behind it? The government has not fulfill their promise to show how they calculate current petroleum prices. Sad day for Malaysia indeed.

        We are overpaying gomen by about 70 sen per litre. According to Global prices, ron 95 should be around RM1.40 to RM1.50

        calculate that with 10 million motorist. Gomen makes billions extra

        But yet universities and schools got no funding and hospitals have cut back medicine. Some even say ubat sudah habis!

        OMG OMG OMG. Every week now it is going higher and higher and higher or unchanged. Never down.
        And the best part is, we are an oil producing country.

        All oil producing countries sell their oil very cheap to the rakyat. Look at Saudi, they sell their Ron at RM1.10 per liter.

        Nearly all oil producing countries sell their oil super cheap to their rakyat, except Malaysia. Brunei also sell like 60 cents per litre.

        Pity Malaysians. Ringgit also got no value. Orang Brunei, get minyak cheap and yet their currency is 3.5X Ringgit!

    In 30 years, maybe this will no longer be a problem as all cars will be running on electricity. Unless, electricity prices also change weekly then.

          Majority supplies of electricity derives from coal or LNG power plants, no such thing as Oil. Coal/LNG is Abundance and cheap.

    Maybe some super hi-IQ minister will say:

    “Increase prices of petrol will make us be more conscious and will curb speeding. In effect, there shall be less traffic accident, any saves more life”

    “All in all, we increase petrol prices, is for your won good, okeh?”

    Our fuel prices are over priced relative to other nations and is not transparent. Rakyat suffering but they enjoy the taxes collected and continue to squander. Sigh…nation has gone to the dogs!
