From September 1, gas price increased by 51,000 VND/cylinder

Since the beginning of August, this is the second consecutive time that domestic retail gas prices have increased by a total of VND102,000/cylinder/12kg.

Some retail gas businesses in Ho Chi Minh City have planned to adjust prices from September 1.

Accordingly, the new gas price will increase by about 51,000 VND/12kg cylinder, to nearly 420,000 VND.

Thus, this is the second time that domestic retail gas prices have increased consecutively, with a total of 102,000 VND/12kg cylinder. Previously, in early August 2012, domestic gas prices also increased by about 52,000 VND/12kg cylinder.

Regarding the reason for the price increase, according to the explanation from gas companies, it is because the world gas price for September 2012 delivery increased by 175 USD/ton, up to 950 USD/ton compared to the previous month./.
