(Archive/stock)

May 25th, 2015 (InsideCostaRica.com) Price hikes announced by Costa Rica’s Regulatory Authority for Public Services (ARESEP) last week will go into effect on Friday.

 

Super gasoline will increase in price from ¢600/liter to ¢643/liter; regular gasoline from ¢575 to ¢610; while diesel will increase from ¢478/liter to ¢514/liter.

 

ARESEP said in a press release that the increases are the result of falling stocks of the refined products in the United States and increased demand in that country.

    This is total BS! US oil production just hit a 43 year high! Demand has not increased so there is downward pressure on price again. Saudi oil production is also not going down which is putting more downward pressure on price. It has been eported in the past that ARESEP determines CR pricing based on oil costs and exchange rate. The exchange rate has not changed since the last adjustment but oil prices have fallen. Now they say that they are also making adjustments based on speculation. The citizens of CR should be raising hell!

    We just keep letting the C.R. government steal AND extort us and the Ticos allow it also. Who is the Dumb ones….WE ARE for putting up with this B.S. NO wonder C.R. is going backward and no one is coming here to live… R.E. down, nothing is selling and the government is pushing out huge companies with their foolishness. The will never be a USA no mater how hard they try. Stealing is so great here that there is no left overs to do good roads, infrastructure, government functions. Look if just Soccer managers are stealing Millions just think what the higher up guys are doing and a part of all this. They have to raise Gas to make up for the Mafia guys that are getting caught and wont be paying them their monthly allowances. Pity Costa Rica it is a downward spiral.
