I think this is the beginnings of an economy based on perpetual growth and fossil fuel energy running headlong into geological energy constraints. Basically I see an undulatory downward path for the rest of my life. From here out, I think any rallies in our economic condition are going to be met with spiking commodity prices that knock us right back down.

1 dollar buys you RM 3.28

and gasoline sells for RM 2.70/liter in Malaysia

let's do the math

$/gal = 2.7/3.28*3.785 = $3.11/gal

Same gasoline can be purchased at international markets at $3.48/gal as of 06/13/08

Yes there is subsidy but not too much. The subsidy is 37 cents or. .37/3.48 = %10.6
