Gas prices in Trinidad & Tobago

[scotty_buttons]

The stated goal is to remove the subsidy.
Therefore we will be paying close to international prices.

How we would be taxed is the question.

Premium would have to drop if we're going to pay international prices.

I hearing talk that the plan would be to keep subsidizing diesel to a point and make super and premium subsidize the price of diesel.

This would be a dumb move, this would only cause more of a shift to diesel pick-ups and more people will end up using diesel.

[racedriverpro]

+ I believe that we deserve a guaranteed quality of fuel. Some stations fuel burning our like that....probably employing "measures" to guarantee profits.

[cherrypopper]

Gas is burning out real fast. ..

So those driving econo-boxes have to subsidize the Prado and Raj Wagon [be it Vigo, Navara, Ranger etc.] drivers??
I doubt this is a real plan.

[drchaos]

Nah is not only Raj curry duck lime by Caura we will be subsidizing ...

is de pl by the taxi/maxi stand every morning ... is de price of goods in de supermarket ... is de price of doubles (cause we all know bara does fry in disesel) ... is the price of flow bundles (cause flow does increase dey price with the price of fuel as well... who knows why???).

All people have to do is say no and strike. If the money was being used to benefit the people of the country it will be ok . But being used to furnish overpriced contracts is just wrong

Once the fuel float comes so will the Forex float.

Need to stop the 1% menace from vacuuming the Forex

Hello sMASH,

There will not be less cars on the road my good man.

You really feel Trinis are going to park up their cars and travel, car pool etc? Or stay home from work with the excuse that gas is too expensive?

They will pay the increased gas prices just as they pay for rum, cigarettes and wet fetes.

The jokes are on Trinis, and it always will be unless they change their attitude, mentality, be responsible, stand up and speak out.

[death365]

this is PNM country !!!! so what ever "d gov't" do right now ok, the country will bend over an tek it.

so i cant blame the Pnm anymore; is we too dotish as a people. the should and will fix up their people (financiers) to get more an more and more.

we will end up just like other corrupt countries, only poor and super rich!!!

I actually agree with you here.Four Trinis in a house, 10 cars in the yard (somewhat exaggerated). Man driving they Supra and anything with a RB engine not going to switch to more fuel efficient cars. Dotish people will still be driving around aimlessly in motorcades behind idiotic politicians, and parading behind music truck for whatever occasion. Wastage is our mantra.Venezuela 2.0 here we come

Joke's on whoever think that there will be less cars on the road. Over the past few weeks sales have skyrocketed and hardly any are full electric. There will be a continued demand for fuel because Trinis whine for 9 days and then go silent.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

What he said^ that PEA series nearing end soon. PLENTY people rush to buy vehicles because of the new taxes which gonna hit soon

[pugboy]

lot of used car fix and repair fellas been buying up cars too as they likely gonna call higher price for their flash painted fixuppers

[unimatrix-001]

Not to worry... in keeping with the Paris agreement and the red gvt's deep concern for the enviornment...a carbon tax will soon be implemented on fuel...it is the will of the people!

[88sins]

And they voted for all that.
Wait for it, fuel cartels already formed, just quietly awaiting on acquisitions. One specific group done marking to buy as many gas stations as they can and they watching port of Spain, Maraval, D'go, Chaguaramas, and in the east from Laventille to San Juan.

And what I talking about, it's all going to in one very large family, most members already have very deep pockets and a lot of resources, and they already leveraging literally EVERYTHING they have to make sure this happens.

So the people like it, so they get it.
Now would be a good time to invest in bicycles and draught livestock.

Well if there was this magical unicorn thingy called proper public transport, they might actually not mind leaving their cars home.

Same gas same bad planning.

Same dotish solution.

Fix the margins against the cost Paria imports at.
That's all.

The way it's being done is GORTT is protecting 2 state enterprises and Unipet and leaving all the risk on the private sector.

And telling the public in no uncertain terms that they will be the ones to bear the brunt of the burden.
This is what allyuh actively and happily chose, with pride, while singing a shitty-ditty wearing a red or yellow or green or whatever the hell other color $5 jersey.

When the SHTF, let them take shaft and smile and sing the "PNM, the right choice" song till dey belly full.

Dem fellas swinging rent free on that ponytail bai.

[88sins]

I do not care who you vote for, or what side you vote for, or the reason why you chose to vote for either.
Fact is, until the masses grow some balls and say enough is enough, and start demanding better from both the popular party (govt) and the runner up (opposition), & stop swallowing the wholesale horse apples both sides keep shoveling, this little mud pit in the water will remain exactly the way it is.
A fragmented, one sided mess of morons that just eating crap and too stupid to say they don't want that, much less refuse to eat it, and they so dotish that they eh go even ask for a lil salt to flavor the shitsandwich they being told they have to eat.
