President Maithripala Sirisena said today even though the oil price formula was introduced to provide the benefit of fuel price reduction in the international market to the people, the local fuel prices were increasing since the introduction of this formula.
“A decision whether to change this will be taken based on upcoming Budget proposals,” he told the Heads of Media Institutions at the President’s House.

Yes please. Keep on subsidising. Someone will pay for it in some other form.

I think he's forgotten for which side he's batting.

Obviously becaue the inputs like fuel oil price is increasing. This main ingredient in formula. If someone does not understand that well .............. !!

When the next fuel price revision comes up even if the fuel oil prices have come down I can predict it will keep going up till Mahinda Rajapaksa debts are paid off until 2020.

Public must be made aware of the pricing formula. Whatever the formula crude oil increased by 40 US cents and dollar gained a rupee from the last revision. This does not warrant Rs 4/- increase per litre. Increase is to cover up political overheads and other inefficiencies.

ISN'T THERE ANY FORMULA TO UPGRADE HIS HEAD ?

All that this President can do is to keep complaining about things; never doing anything constructive to improve the administrative process. He even complains about the arrest of wrong doers.

He can do more - he even threatens to use the sword and maduwaligey.

He always forgets he is president of this country and act like still a Grama sewaka.
