Cooking gas prices decline in HCM City

The retail price of a 12 kg gas canister in HCM City dropped by VND7,000 (US$0.33) on the first day of the new year following a decision by Saigon Petro Gas, one of the largest gas distributors in Viet Nam.

Retail prices offered in neighbouring provinces fell accordingly and were reduced to VND422,000 ($20) per canister.

The slump came after the world gas price decreased by $25 to $955 a tonne over November last year.

There were nine increases and seven reductions in gas prices in 2012.
