    Reminds me back in 2008 where keeping our tanks full was a weekly routine, but this is worst. Forget about high prices, what's the use of lower prices if there is nothing to sell!

    until when is this price freeze? i'm sure once the price cap is lifted, the oil companies will not wait long to recover their "losses"

    I think when the state of calamity is lifted. I haven't read the EO, but IMHO, the price rollback should only cover the areas which were affected by the 2 typhoons (ondoy and pepeng) and not the rest of the country.

    Eh buong Luzon ginawang state of calamity possibly buong 2009 na daw. The government might be able to force oil companies to sell at a certain price. But the damage to investor confidence especially the foreign variety is unimaginable. Business man and capitalists always want an environment where they are free to price. This is a huge damage to the credibility of this country as a place to put money.
