Government calls for lower fuel prices
The government on 3 September asked fuel retailers to lower petroleum prices, so as to reflect the drop in global prices in the last few months.
At a meeting chaired by Chhoun Dara, a secretary of state at the Commerce Ministry, oil companies were given a week to report the mechanism they would use for a price drop, but were informed that if prices could not be cut another meeting would be called with senior officials.
