Do we expect lower petrol prices soon?

Nope, not talking about the removal of subsidy for RON95. Of course that would push prices up lah. However, there’s this news that the global demand for oil is slowing down. Nope, I seriously do not believe this lower demand for oil is caused by Electric Vehicles (EVs). Not yet anyway until the sale of TVs surpass the world’s total number of internal combustion engine cars. As of now, the percentage is still very low except for probably China.

In terms of savings, EVs do NOT save money versus your usual petrol engined car yeah. It is cheaper per km to run than any internal combustion engine (ICE) car but the price is already by far higher for the same size segment. There is no way you can save enough from the fuel costs in your EV lifetime yeah. So, if you are also thinking of EV, please do not think of it as saving money yeah. It is not the correct mindset. Just think of it as I just love EV. Period. Haha. Anyway, I may still decide not to buy an EV yeah. We shall see.

This was an article about petrol subsidy rationalisation. Why do people from other countries love our petrol? (click to read) As a taxpayer, I hate it when strangers from other countries are benefiting from our subsidy and the government is spending tax money on further making others rich instead.
