How is the rising cost affectting the common man? Thousands assembled at the intersection of Odeon and Sogo, at 2.30pm on last Friday to voiced their disapproval at what possibly is the biggest petrol price hike, the world over, put out by our ruling government. I wonder at how the ordinary wage earners are to maintain their families on megre monthly incomes.
Really if the leaders were truly committed to the Rakyat and were honest and not wasteful, the Rakyat would not have given vent to this much of anger. All those Billions wasted on Mega Projects, in wasteful expenditure in keeping a bloated and sluggish bureaucracy to work as a mere vote bank for the ruling party to remain in control.
The token 10% cut in entertainment, is a mere drop in the ocean, does not reflect the sincerity of the Federal Government. Give up your overseas holidays – we tell our leaders, change your life styles, ours is already at the rock bottom.
With this Petrol hike, the common man will find it very hard to survive, literally, all things have increased in their prices. take for example, a loaf of bread of 660gms used to cost RM 2.30 had increased to RM2.60 and recently gone up to RM2.80. I counted the slices, there are only 23 slices! Imagine a simple slice of bread cost more than 12 sen! How to live?
The Rakyat's voice must be heard!
Suara Rakyat!!! Makkal Sakthi!!!
