• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thank the Assistant Minister for the answer. I would like some clarifications from it. In part "a" of your Question, you tend to suggest that the prices of crude oil have reduced by about 69.3 per cent. However, on a quick calculation, there is a reduction of over 70 per on the prices of crude oil.
