                    [Title] => Consumers urge gov’t to rein in oil price hikes
                    [Summary] => A movement of citizens against oil cartel and deregulation pressed the government yesterday to rein in the runaway prices of oil and petroleum products.


Political will, Kontra Kartel said, would ensure stable prices amid rising crude oil prices in the world market.

Kontra Kartel insisted that "nationalization" - government takeover of private property or operations - must be considered at this point as they called on the government to recall the oil deregulation law, or Republic Act 8479.

Caltex officials added that the move to raise its LPG price is due to rising global prices and difficult local and international market conditions.
