Crude Oil in now under USD40. What Now?

I know this has been almost a week but then again, I might as well continue to put in my thoughts about the fuel price issue (although I’m no longer in Malaysia, I’m still paying for my car). It’s almost a week now that fuel price is under USD40 per barrel. What’s now in store for Malaysians? More price [...]

Undeniably that will mean at least 78 cent increase in all food & commodities in Malaysia. This means that the inflation for 2008 will be between  25%~40% (Thats’ just my estimation) [...]
