The Minister of Industry and Commerce, Manuel Garcia Arevalo, said yesterday, Tuesday 6 June that fuel prices will drop by between RD$4 and RD$6 over the next few weeks.
He said that it was not true that fuel prices would increase after the elections, and was hoping that the decrease in the price of crude at the international level should trickle down to fuel prices and the end user.
Speaking to journalists while handing over the George Arzeno Brugal prizes for Industrial Journalism, he explained that the price of crude and the price of its derivatives were two different things. However, he said that the prices we have at the moment are based on a barrel of petroleum costing 100 dollars, as quoted in Listin Diario.
