ON MONDAY, FILIPINOS ARE GREETED with both good news and bad news aside from the jeepney strike of one transport group.

First, the good news was pump prices of diesel and kerosene are set to roll back again tomorrow, Tuesday, October 17.

Second, the bad news was gasoline prices will continue their upward swing.

Seaoil Philippines Corp. and Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corp. announced in their separate statements that the prices per liter for both diesel and kerosene will decrease by P0.95.

But prices of gasoline will be hiked by P0.55 per liter.

On the other hand, Cleanfuel will implement the same changes, excluding kerosene which it does not carry.

Maharlika NuMedia gathered that oil companies usually announce price adjustments every Monday to be implemented on the following day. (ai/mnm)
