Diesel Shortage 柴油短缺-Chinese & English text


砂劳越州吉都隆区立委周政新,砂行动党署理主席及行动党民都鲁支部主席2012.6.28日文告如下:

 吉都隆区立委周政新吁呼吁政府積極且一勞永逸的解决民省经常柴油短缺的事件。

 他说柴油使用者为了添油,四处奔波,从一间油站買不到,又到另一间油站,有时候可连跑45间油站还是買不到。这不但叫人们浪费时间,更感到焦急与氣愤,而做生意的人更是失去了做生意的机会。这真是劳民又伤财!

 周氏指出我国做为一个石油生产国是不可能,也不可以出现柴油售到人民要買没得買的狀况。人民每个月需要多少柴油,而石油公司也提供相等的数量,数字是不会騙人的,所以它更不應该出现短缺的问题。

 但是今天实事擺在我们的眼前,人民经常买不到柴油,这足以清楚的告诉了我们,它又是一个政府管理不当的事实。一些贪官污吏横行无忌,政权腐败,导致人民天天都面对着日子艰难的问题。

 由政府所制定的柴油津贴制表面看起来说好像是很体惜人民,幫助了那些需要幫助的人士与业者,可是他们今天连油都买不到,这怎能还说是幫助他们呢?

 難到政府不知道当巿面油站的柴油以每公升一零吉八十仙卖时,而工业柴油郤要以三零吉多才能买到的,將会导致怎样的狀况?!

 如此的政策不但沒有幫到那些真正需要幫助的人士与业者反而间接的害了他们。因为那根本是一个行不通,不符合且被滥用的政策。

 人们欢迎政府礙定政策幫助人民,但是幫助人民也要幫的得体,而方法可以有很多且要实行的对。但是,如左手1.8零吉可買 到,而右手,加开支,可以3.0零吉左右卖出,这样的津贴制肯定会出问题,而实事也就是如此,所以津贴制已经被利用了。

 因此,我呼吁政府有必要重新檢讨柴油津贴制並提供一个完整与徤康的制度來解决柴油经常短缺的狀况。

 周政新。

Media Statement by Chiew Chin Sing, State Assemblyman for Kidurong, Sarawak, Sarawak DAP Deputy Chairman and DAP Bintulu Branch Chairman on the 28.6.2012.

State Assemblyman for Kidurong Chiew Chin Sing called on the government
to seriously resolve the problem once and for all of the frequent
diesel shortage in  Bintulu.

He said that diesel users had to run from one gas station to another
and sometimes up to 4 or 5 gas stations just to buy diesel for their
cars, and still could not get it. This is not only time wasting but
most frustrating also, not to mention the lost business opportunities
of  businessman.

Chiew said that this is not right and cannot be, for a country which
is producing oil to be out of diesel. It is simple arithmetic of how
much oil the people need and how diesel the oil company is supplying,
there is then, no reason  that there could be shortage.

But today the fact of the matter is that, people often cannot buy the
diesel, there is just non around. This is another show case example of
the failure of the government of the day to good governance.
Corruption and abuse of power had made it difficult for the people.

On the surface of it, subsidies look like good policy trying to help
those who really need it. But today it is exactly these people who
could not even buy the diesel. So how could the government say that
they are helping them ?

It is hard to believe that doesnt the government know the effect
such policy  could cause , when on one hand diesel at gas station is
sold at RM 1.8 per litre while the diesel for industrial use is sold
more than RM 3.0 per litre.
A  policy like this is not helping the people but only creating more
trouble because it is a failed policy which had been abused and can no
longer work.

The people welcome the government in making policies to help the
people. But this has to be done the right way. There are many ways
that we can help those in need, but not when the left hand can buy it
for RM 1.8 while the right hand can sell it for RM3.0, plus expenses.
Such policy is doomed to fail and that is what is exactly happening
today. The subsidies policy had been abused.

I therefore call on the government to study again the diesel subsidy
police and come up with a more complete and healthy system to solve
the problem of frequent diesel shortage.

Chiew Chin Sing
