Philip Hollsworth concept

U think this will work ?
LET'S JUST DO IT ! ! !
THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' PETROL FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW WE CAN GET PETROL BACK DOWN TO RM1.92 PER Litre....
This was originally sent by Phillip Hollsworth, a retired Coca Cola executive.
If you are tired of the gas prices going up
AND they will continue to rise this winter, take time to read this, PLEASE.
Phillip offered this good idea.
This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy petrol on a certain day' campaign that was going around last April or May!
It is worth your consideration. Join the resistance!!!!
We are going to hit RM 2.70 a litre and it might go higher!!
Want petrol prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united action.
The oil companies just laughed at last year's action because they knew we would not continue to 'hurt' ourselves by refusing to buy petrol.
It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them.
BUT whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work.
Please read on and join with us!By now, you're probably thinking petrol priced at about $1.50 is cheap. It is currently RM2.70 for regular unleaded.
Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a liter of gas is CHEAP at $1.50, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the marketplace...not sellers.
With the price of gasoline going up more each day, we consumers need to take action.
The only way we are going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their petrol!
And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves.
How? Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying petrol.
But we CAN have an impact on petrol prices if we all act together to force a price war.Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY petrol from Petronasthe biggest price-up driver company.
If they are not selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit.
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Petronas petrol buyers.
It's SO simple!
Now, don't wimp out on me at this point...keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions and even BILLIONS of people!!
I am sending this note to 20 people.
If each of you sends it on to at least twenty more that's (20 x 20 = 400) ..
And those 400 send it to at least twenty more (400 x 20 = 8000 ... and so on, by the time the message reaches the fifth group of people, we will have reached over SIXTY FOUR MILLION consumers!!!!!
20x20 = 400
400x20 = 8,000
8,000x20 = 160,000
160,000x20 = 3,200,000
3,200,000x20 = 64,000,000
64,000,000x20 = 12,800,000,000 That's 12.80 Billion people folks, who will have been contacted!!!!!Unbelievable??
Do the math and see for yourself! Again, all you have to do is send this to 20 people. That's all!I'll bet you didn't think we had that much potential, did you! Acting together we can make a difference..If this message makes sense to you, then please pass it on. THEY will LOWER THEIR PRICES TO BELOW THE RM1.92 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK.It's simple – send the message along to others and choose to not buy petrol from Petronas.
TWENTY FIVE POINT SIX BILLION people: Now THAT's people power.
LET'S JUST DO IT ! ! ! More power to you friend.

Above is an email i received frm 1 of my fren.
It's abit long-winded bt is abt petrol price so i guess most of u wud b interested.
SO tell me, do u believe it will work??
I choose not to forward it becoz i dun like to forward anythin that may sound kinda true bt nt true. lol get wat i try to mean?
So i google Philip Hollsworth and find some info abt it. click here to read the whole article.
That whole email was originated from US and someone jus edit it to fit into Malaysia Market.
And that concept already exist in 2001
So did it really work?
I guess you and I know best.

So drive less or head to the post office to claim your road tax la. lol

*I persoanlly think the math theory is kinda true though =p*

hmm...i doubt tat...the oil price isn't control by petronas itself oso...if each and evry malaysian opt for alternatives like esso or mobil...then those profits just go in their(usa) pocket...less profitable frm petronas for government to provide the citizen subsidies...the us fella just bullshit oni...correct me if im wrong...
