An anti-fuel hike coalition is targeting a massive one million people to participate in their oil price increase demonstration at KLCC on July 12.
At the same time, the coalition, called Geramm, will also collect one million signatures in the road-shows beginning tomorrow to petition the government to reduce the oil price.These plans were announced at a pres conference held by Geramm today.
Last week, the government announced a massive fuel hike - petrol prices were increased by 41 percent and diesel 63 percent - in line with a global surge in oil prices.Another protest against the fuel hike, targeting about 10,000 people, is being planned for tomorrow after Friday prayers.
Several other smaller protests have also taken place nationwide after the fuel hike announcement.
