In a way, it is actually a smart move for the government to signal the potential price risk, as it reduces business uncertainties and allows the public to prepare for such eventualities. This is better than keeping quiet," he told Bernama.Recently, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim had said that Malaysia could maintain the RON95 price ceiling at RM1.99 per litre for about two months if geopolitical tensions escalate.Nazmi noted that Malaysia has been a net oil importer since 2022 and that its domestic fuel prices are determined through the automatic price mechanism (APM), which is benchmarked against the Mean of Platts Singapore (MOPS), a key pricing reference for refined petroleum products traded in the region.MOPS is the main pricing reference across Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia, and is also widely used across the broader Asia-Pacific market, including Australia and South Korea.The economist said that MOPS and global crude benchmarks such as Brent and West Texas Intermediate tend to move together, meaning changes in global oil prices affect Malaysias domestic fuel pricing.Nazmi said tensions in the Strait of Hormuz could also raise shipping rates, insurance premiums and logistics costs for refined petroleum products moving into Asia, adding that prolonged disruptions could feed into inflation.He added that if Brent crude averages about US$84 per barrel this year, Malaysias consumer price index growth could increase by around 15 basis points

RENTAK cemerlang Liverpool berterusan dengan kemenangan besar 5-2 ke atas West Ham, sekali gus memberi keyakinan kepada pemain Liverpool, Cody Gakpo bahawa kejayaan itu bakal menjadi titik tolak kepada permulaan sesuatu yang indah buat pasukan.Kemenangan keempat berturut-turut dalam semua kejohanan itu membolehkan Liverpool kini terikat mata dengan Manchester United yang berada di tangga keempat.Situasi itu memberi sinar harapan buat penyerang antarabangsa Belanda, Gakpo, bahawa mereka masih mampu menyelamatkan kempen musim ini yang sebelum ini agak mengecewakan.Jadual padat menanti The Reds apabila mereka dijadual melayan kunjungan Wolves dalam aksi EPL pada Selasa ini, sebelum berdepan lawan yang sama untuk pusingan kelima Piala FA tiga hari kemudian.Mereka seterusnya akan menentang wakil Turkiye, Galatasaray, di pusingan 16 akhir Liga Juara-Juara minggu berikutnya."Ia satu petang yang cukup baik

CHELSEA kini memasuki tempoh paling getir musim ini apabila bakal mengharungi rangkaian perlawanan sukar bermula dengan kunjungan ke gelanggang seteru kota London, Arsenal tengah malam ini dalam usaha memburu kedudukan lima terbaik Liga Perdana Inggeris (EPL).Anak buah Liam Rosenior sebelum ini memulakan kempen dengan langkah meyakinkan menerusi kemenangan ke atas Brentford, Pafos, Crystal Palace dan Wolves, selain kejayaan penting di gelanggang Napoli serta menundukkan West Ham di laman sendiri.Namun keputusan seri berturut-turut menentang Leeds dan Burnley selepas gagal mempertahankan kelebihan di Stamford Bridge mengubah landskap persaingan, sekali gus meletakkan tekanan besar ke atas The Blues.Ketika ini, Chelsea hanya mengatasi Liverpool menerusi perbezaan jaringan dan berdepan jadual yang dianggap paling mencabar dalam kalangan pasukan yang bersaing merebut slot Liga Juara-Juara (UCL) musim depan.Selepas aksi di Emirates, The Blues akan bertandang ke Aston Villa sebelum menerima kunjungan Manchester City dan Manchester United secara berturut-turut pada pertengahan April.Cabaran lebih sukar menanti apabila perlu ke Anfield pada 9 Mei.Dalam masa sama, Chelsea turut mengharungi aksi kalah mati UCL serta kempen Piala FA, situasi yang menuntut pengurusan skuad lebih rapi.Model ramalan Opta menjangkakan Chelsea menamatkan saingan di tangga keenam, satu kemunduran berbanding kedudukan keempat musim lalu.Kegagalan menempatkan diri dalam kelompok lima terbaik bakal memberi kesan kepada perancangan kewangan dan perpindahan pemain musim panas.Rosenior mengakui pasukannya perlu lebih tajam dan konsisten, terutama ketika berdepan Arsenal yang turut memburu kemenangan bagi mengukuhkan cabaran kejuaraan.Chelsea juga perlu memperkemaskan disiplin selepas mengumpul lapan kad merah musim ini.Ketiadaan Wesley Fofana akibat penggantungan, selain Marc Cucurella yang cedera dan Estevao yang masih diragui, menambah cabaran buat skuad London Barat itu.Bagi Rosenior, tempoh ini akan menentukan hala tuju musim mereka sama ada terus kekal dalam landasan UCL atau terpaksa berpuas hati dengan kedudukan di luar kelompok elit.

Liverpool boosted their Champions League hopes with a 5-2 win against West Ham, helped by three goals from set-pieces in the first half.
