Last week, oil firms implemented a price reduction on diesel by P0.35, gasoline by P0.10 per liter and kerosene by P0.55 per liter.

It was also last week when labor group Defend Jobs Philippines cited that the prices of gasoline and diesel increased by eight times since January this year, totaling to P6.20 and P6.05 per liter, respectively, while the price of kerosene went up seven times, amounting to P5.25 per liter.
