GAS PRICES GO UP AGAIN IN BELIZE

Fuel Prices Up Again; Diesel now at $11.04

I was driving to work this morning at mid-day and had the radio on in my van. I wish I didn't because the news that came oVer the radio is another nightmare and proof that political promises are idle talk to win elections. The politician will tell you that this is a global thing and one they have no control over. I know that to be true so then maybe it is time for us to stop promising that cost of things will not go up when we know that we will have no control over prices anyway.

ANYWAY, GAS PRICES HAVE GONE UP IN BELIZE TODAY AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT MEANS ALOT OF THINGS WILL GO UP IN BELIZE IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

Jumps in the cost of fuel are becoming so regular, consumers have gone from saying “Again!” to “how much now?” But the prices in effect as of today are startlingly reflective of a disturbing new reality. Premium gasoline will sell for eleven dollars and seventeen cents, up thirty-five cents. Regular jumped twenty-six cents to ten dollars and ninety-four cents a gallon. And diesel, often referred to as the lifeblood of the economy, is now a whopping eleven dollars and four cents, up forty-nine cents from the old price of ten fifty-five.
