Thanks to the next general elections which are fast approaching, the federal government was kind enough to provide some relief to the people in general and motorists in particular by not increasing but instead reducing the POL products’ prices for the second time in June 2012. But there is no guarantee whatsoever that this relief would persist and there is every possibility of yet another petrol bomb hitting the people in less than a week from now.
So better be on the safe side and do not relax too much on this temporary relief despite which the POL products are still considerably high-priced and continue making efforts for searching fuel saving measures in order to minimise the petrol expenses to the maximum extent possible without compromising on the long and short distances travelling one has to do every day. This is in particular for the kind attention of the motorists with modest resources like me.
