Dear Friends !!!
Petrol in Pakistan Rs. 17 per litre
Malaysia Rs. 18 per litre
In India it’s Rs. 48 per litre
In Sri Lanka it is Rs. 157 per litre
Why this difference in Asia itself?
World Market CRUDE Oil is not
the reason for this.
It’s all Gain for private owners?
As we are the general public, or
Common Man as R.K.Laxman would
have said, we have to raise our voice,
let’s raise thru Emails.
Forward this to all
Indians and Sri Lankans who cares.
IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF
EVERYONE DID NOT PURCHASE A
DROP OF PETROL FOR ONE DAY
AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME,
THE OIL COMPANIES WOULD
CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES.
AT THE SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT
THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A
NET LOSS OVER 4.6 BILLION DOLLARS
WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES
OF THE OIL COMPANIES.
THEREFORE ‘Friday 13th June’
HAS BEEN DECLARED
‘STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND’ DAY
AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION
SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP
OF PETROL THAT DAY.
THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS
IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS
MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS
QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE
WORD OUT. WAITING ON THE
GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN AND
CONTROL THE PRICES IS NOT GOING
TO HAPPEN.
REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY
IS THE PRICE OF PETROL GOING UP
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES,
TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE FORCED
TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH AFFECTS
PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS
SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING SUPPLIES MEDICAL SUPPLIES
ETC.
WHO PAYS IN THE END?
WE DO!
WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
IF THEY DON’T GET THE MESSAGE
AFTER ONE DAY, WE WILL DO IT
AGAIN AND AGAIN. SO DO YOUR
PART AND SPREAD THE WORD.
FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO
EVERYONE YOU KNOW .
MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND MAKE
June 13th A DAY THAT THE
CITIZENS SAY
‘ENOUGH IS ENOUGH’
We forward so many junk email to
many of our friends, now let us do it
for some useful cause to cut down the
price of the petrol .. ….
REMEMBER :
June 13th Friday 2008
Hmm, not that people will listen to any of this but I’m pretty sure this is jack.
This seems like a US-ripoff email fwd. For example petrol in india is 48 in indian rupees, not sri Lankan rupees, and I’m pretty the loss figures are bull. But even if it was true, it’s a silly idea especially with respect to Sri Lanka. If CPC makes a loss (which it does, without any boycott), whos going to foot the bill at the end of the day? us. The idea although well-intended, is quite silly. (like with most well intended ideas perhaps)
I mean fine enough, Oil price is high and the govt is responsible. for some of it. I just had a post on it , but our protest shouldn’t be even more retarded than govt policy. Honking at noon or boycottin wont reduce the price of oil.
This is not a common currency. When you multiply India’s Rs.48 by 2.8 its SL RS.134. I am no fan of Rajapakse and CPC is making a massive losses compared to counterparts in Asia who are making money. But let’s be fair on the facts. Govt does charge a high duty on petrol which they can reduce to make this affordable.
JEEZZ…people can be soo ignorant..
