    i travel to batangas quite frequently and i'm always surprised to note that gas prices are as high as 41 pesos per liter. where i'm at (near paseo de sta. rosa) unleaded is at 34.25. better than puerto princesa palawan i guess, at 45 pesos per liter

    The further from Manila you get, the more expensive gas gets. Ganyan din sa north.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    eh bakit mas mura ang gas prices daw sa Mindanao compare sa Cebu, in fact Gov. Garcia filed a case against the gas companies...

    and dapat mas mura withing Pandacan area since andoon na yun oil storage

    ^ yeah, it used to be that way. gas prices in manila were higher than those in my area at least 4 years ago. it's just lately that gas prices in the metro have gone down. makes you think there's a conspiracy going on...
