The fuel price increase in Malaysia despite its reduction in other parts of the world shows that the people suffer when Pakatan Rakyat is weak, says Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng.
"When BN wins, these are the policies that are going to be made," he said. "Here, we should remind ourselves that if we are weakened, these are the consequences."
Lim, who is also DAP secretary-general, said this following the 20 sen per litre hike in the prices of diesel and RON 95 petrol last night.
Lim expressed surprise at the hikes, and called on the federal government to explain its stand.
He then compared the fuel price rise in Malaysia with the reduction in fuel prices in United Kingdom (by 26 pence a litre) and India (54 paise).
