Price Control

on Thursday 10 July 2003
Kudos to RKK for noting that the government didn't bother with controlling the prices and demanding the pricing structure from our more basic amenities like phone, water and toll rates.

When the high-ups and investors mention the rampant intellectual property piracy prevalent in our country, we become witness to an era of rare police efficiency as well as tough policies and measures. When the public complains about some ridiculous rates we have to endure for public services, nobody seems to hear. And they are supposed to be "public" services, which apparently rank lower in priority compared to luxury items like optical discs.
