Malaysians Protesting Against Petrol Prices

Malaysians have come a long way .. from being a all muslim state to a state.. where they are able to speak up and stand up for themselves.  In the recent election, we see great changes in Malaysia.. that I never thought could or would happen in my lifetime.. but yes.. it did..!  The common man/blogger were elected to represent the ppl.

Lead by the opposition party, many upset Malaysians took to the streets of Kuala Lumpur and the northern town of Ipoh on Thursday after the Malaysian government increased pump prices by 40 percent overnight.  Yes.. 40% is insane..!  And I certainly don’t blame them for protesting… would you ..?? 

Malaysians relying heavily on subsidies for years, cannot comprehend why an oil producing country cannot continue to fuel subsidies amid rising prices and a slowing economy.  The Malaysians are said to not letting up .. until their government review the situation.
