I won’t be long, just a little note how things get going in our paradise island…
The story is as such:
At STC, you have guys at the top management level who decide about strategies and prices of petroleum products…
They make the decisions for which they GET PAID….
But those decisions are not always right… just like the hedging which the STC made…
and at the bottom, YOU….
You PAY FOR their errors.
So, I guess that perhaps for the next review of price for petroleum products, we will see a rise while the price is decreasing worldwide.
Same story for Air Mauritius, but at least there, some of the Top Management Team are resigning from their jobs because of their errors…
As the Minister Gowreesoo said:
“Mauritians will have to pay for this error”
… & all is well.
No one is bothered that their is money is being siphoned off by… gamblers literally… 😦

Now the public is discovering what the hedging strategy means. A new terminology and methodology for many. However, it would seem that this financial strategy has backfired on the organisations using this. Probably because they were using a long-term policy and in the present world financial and commodities market it would have been safer to have short-term contracts to be able to review fluctuating prices. Conclusion, the consumer will pay for this financial error.

Lol Yashvin…this is certainly not the first time we are paying for the mistakes of the high placed ‘idiots’ the government selects…
pff! I remember when the actual PM spent 30 million for the 12th March festivities some years back…a huge statue made of some special glass (still waiting in some warehouse to be converted into fishing boats for fishermen as promised..lol!) was made of his so much acclaimed dad!
C’mon you all out there, we have always been conned by those same idiots! It leaves the poor poorer and the rich richer..as usual…
Soon we will be like Brazil…Argentina etc…Remember the soap opera “Marimar” or “Rosa”…some people living in palace like houses while others in what we can barely call huts…
Ayo! let me stop here if not “mo la veine dan licou pou casser telma mo gagne laraz ar sa bane imbecile ki dirige partou la!” fouf!

Liberalizasyon with closing STC would also mean paying Cooking Gas @ around Rs 600.00. Its actual price.
