Pua: Gov't forming a cartel with petrol companies

The government has effectively formed a cartel with petroleum companies by not allowing the companies to freely set lower prices for fuel, a DAP lawmaker claims.

Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua said such a practice would be a means by which the government will protect petrol dealers from competition.

"If other essential goods such as vegetables and food, teh tarik and coffee, can see competition, why is such an important essential product, such as fuel, not allowed to compete?" Pua said at a press conference in the Parliament lobby today.
