More or less the same but not so much so fast. Our governments are not well organized at all so we get crazy taxes just because and raise in prices even when the price of the oil barrel goes down simply because the government doesn't want to let go of the profit they can get by keeping it high and taxing on it.

Re: Friends new Diesel

Still, I assume the price per litre is still peanuts compared to ours?

I paid 1.665EUR/litre this weekend

Re: Friends new Diesel

1.97 EUR/liter this morning in Shell. Against my expectations, traffic is getting more jammed as well. I seriously cannot figure it out...

Re: Friends new Diesel

1.97???

In a country where GNI per capita is half that of Western European countries? How do people manage?

That's the problem here, we may pay less compared to other countries, but underdevelopment also means ridiculous minimum wages, and salaries. So in a way it's cheap, but compared to the spending power of the average person it's expensive.

Re: Friends new Diesel

Enma - I've bumped that thread but, no doubt, it will again swing to US politics or healthcare...
