Petrol Cyclone

The first news I received after arriving from Myanmar tonight was the petrol price hike from $1.92 to $2.70 per litre. This "scary" news was conveyed to me by the taxi driver that fetch me from the airport. He also told me there will be a boycott by the airport limousine taxi drivers on Friday.

This petrol "cyclone" will surely affect millions in this country just as Cyclone Nargis tortured many in Myanmar. More information on my trip to survey and deliver humanitarian aids to Myanmar later....
