An ill-timed Execution

From the Tsunami happened the last two years, Rita and Katrina the previous year until the earthquake occurred just past a week, there have been uncountable folks met their deaths. The abrupt catastrophes happen unceasingly in all parts of the globe following with all sort of pestilences burst out, JE, insane cow disease, SARS, dengue fever, flu and mouth disease, bird flu. We are all living in a menacing globe, aren't we?

Obviously, the anxiety we faced is far more than that. The inflation rate had risen as a result of the increase in the prices of goods following the sharp fuel increase. I'm not blame on the rising oil prices of course. The RM1.92 per liter oil price will surely be boosted to the highest value because of scanty petroleum sources.

What made me aggravated is the escalation of power bill implemented by this month. Increasing 12% is a large amount for those factories. For those the bill are constant at between RM44-70, the rise is between RM0.03-3.30 .The reason of this implementation which was given by the minister is to nurture the frugal habit of using electricity to citizens made me don't know whether should laugh or cry.

Did they ever think over the consequences and the welfare of the public? With the rising of power bill, the prime cost of goods will also be added. The mounted prime cost will cause the selling price growing. The selling price of goods has increased once in the wake of rising fuel prices. Currently, the good prices have to boost again to avoid losing proposition.

I'm not against the raise of electricity bill. My feeling is this is not the suitable moment to burden the people again. The bill can be risen as much as they need but now is ill-timed. Maybe it can be promoted later when the people are getting used to current inflation rate? Don't you think this entire oil, pork, bill, goods, and food rise is burst out with a sudden like disaster and disease? How does our economic situation be raised? With the help of tourism? The Disneyland Company even doesn't have the consideration to build an amusement park in our country.

The residents in this country are fraught with challenges while TN faces this rising inflation rate without difficulty. This action is actually to hit us when we are suffering with tribulation. Why not the government implements an action to boost the salary of the employees? Ha-ha... I think this country can hardly improve with poor human capital and government. Sob.
