Why isn’t our govt. implementing additional taxes on the extraordinary profits of the oil companies?
rather than choosing to increase fuel prices....
It was common knowledge that oil companies were paying only US$30 for the exploration of each barrel of oil, and selling the raw oil for US$130 per barrel. This large profit has been enjoyed by oil companies for the last 3 years while we RAKYAT has to suffer everytime the fuel increases!!

don't blame the Malaysian govt...but blame George W Bush for the Iraq war...
due to the war (becos of oil, and not WMD), many oil fields in Iraq have been burnt down by angry Iraqis who refused to let the American companies get the fuel...
so the oil price increase is a worldwide issue...now, many Americans hate the Bush Administration because of all this.
and i am ashamed to be an American!

i think of the belief of wearing SS Gestapo uniforms and breaking into publically owned agencies and stealing their money is a huge concept! and that i think of singling out a single marketplace is a good greater suited concept, that way they could positioned on oil barrel patches with lines by way of them top next to the swastika. yet yet another occasion of the elitist mentality thinking the conventional joe is a few variety of moronic fool. so they are going to thieve money from agencies who're in an excellent variety of 401k money throughout the U. S., alongside with many federal and state run retirement money, that it will fee the first public lots greater suitable than $1000 each and every whilst the shares, then the money, tank. Oh, yet wait, the undesirable inner city individuals have not got 401ks. Ahhhh, now i'm getting it, redistribution of wealth and taking those rich 401k having working classification individuals down a notch. think of that. i ponder whether they are going to goose step into the workplaces to thieve their money, or only walk accepted?

That's because some of the top govt officials own these oil companies. Why would they want to impose additional tax on themselves?

Even if they do, What for ? It is just like transferring money from your left pocket to your left one. You gain nothing. Instead, you have to put money from other sources so that you have more money in your pockets... :-)
