Diesel Fuel Levy

I just realised that "Australia Pinnacle Tours" APT, in Perth has implement the Diesel Fuel Levy as of 1 June 08... The reason is due to sudden and unforseen increase in the cost of diesel fuel.. A Diesel Fuel Levy of AUS$5 per passenger per day tour.. (to be collect directly from the passengers by the APT's representative)

Now not only the airline are charging for the fuel surcharge, even land tour operator are feeling the pinch of the soaring fuel price... Express bus operators like Transtar Travel is charging passenger Fuel and insurance tax of $3 for one way and $5 for return Coach Ticket... I was wondering will the hotel start charging electricity and water surcharge to guest... Hopefully not..

The soaring fuel price has increase our cost of living, especially transportation. We are too depend on fuel and if this still carry on... It might lead to financial depression... The whole world is moving into a new revolution where we should make do without fuel (this day will come as now is the beginning of the turning point)... look for other fuel alternative... Over the years, scientists all over the world are working very hard to find alternative to replace fuel, that will eventually run out one day...
