on a bit of a tangent, but still related, in the latest budget, "New" government and increasing diesel fuel taxes from 1st of Jan 2009.
just what the community needs!! with many ppl buying economical Diesel cars, not to mention the inflationary pressure bought on by increaded price of everything transported by road!
smart move....
dont get me started on LPG, Australias LPG is 100% supplied by Bass straight, only 30% is needed locally, the rest is exported!....yet its price is linked at the bowser to the singapore Oil price by the oil companies. !!! LPG prices at the pump vary daily, yet it is actually priced against the Saudi market set price, which is changed only Monthly......
