It was on the news today, petrol and diesel prices reduced by 15 cent per litre. Yes, this is definitely a good news for all car and motorbike users/owners. This is a very good news in recent weeks of slow and bad economy. At least it did ease some burden of all Malaysian.

I believe price of other daily products should be also reducing immediately. If you realize that any where which they still doesn’t reduce price, boycott them! Even our Prime Minister and some ministers also voice out that we should boycott those outlets which refused to lower prices. Many businessmen or businesswomen will increase their price but will never reduce the price.

This is the fifth price cut since August.

Yesterday’s price of a barrel of crude was about US$56.

Talk about reducing price. Five times the petrol price was reduced but TNB still never reduce their price on the electricity bill. Do you think that’s fair for all Malaysian? TNB should be grateful because they are the only one to provide electricity in the country.

I calling upon our government to have a policy to have more than one supplier in any field. This is bringing more benefits to all Malaysian. More competitors mean more improvement. Improvement will help Malaysia to moving forward for better future.

We as the consumers, we must know our rights and how to protect our rights.

Mat Rempit! Many non-Malaysian will ask what is that mean. Mat Rempit is a Malaysian term for an individual who participates in illegal street racing, usually involving underbone motorcycles. Some of them was performing dangerous stunt act such as riding motorbike in Superman flying style.

Recently there are so many criminal cases involving Mat Rempits. You can always read on newspaper that Mat Rempits assault and robbing some road users. I was so mad and sad as this Mat Rempits culture causing bad image of our country in the eyes of the whole world.

Mat Rempits usually travel in groups and race in bustling city centres on weekend nights. In recent times, Mat Rempits have been linked to gangsterism, gang robbery, street fighting, assault, vandalism, theft, bullying and rape.

Some Mat Rempits do not have valid motorcycle licenses, do not pay road taxes, and ride stolen motorcycles.
