Re-instate the pre-Feb 28 fuel subsidy. This is what a group of 16
organisations led by the Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) wants
the government to do immediately.The call emerged after a meeting, believed to be the first of its kind, between more than 20 representatives of residents associations, rights activist groups, opposition political parties and the trade union umbrella body today.
Last week, the MTUC slammed the government's cavalier attitude in attempting to explain the reduction in fuel subsidy, contending that the move will cause untold hardship to workers particularly fixed wage earners.
