00:00Well, thoughts on the gas price going up? It's about time that it found its own level.

00:13Hopefully it will go down when the worldwide price of oil and gas goes down, as well as

00:19going up. We find that in a lot of markets, prices often go up, never to come down. So

00:25it's going to make it interesting to see. Well, prices have been cheap for a long time,

00:30so it's definitely going to make some people unhappy.

00:34UAE is the highest price in the Gulf region already. I have little information about that

00:40in UAE, they don't have already petrol, they have petrol and natural gas, but the price

00:45is going up. It's already the price is high here in UAE.

00:49It's never good news when prices are going up, and especially now everything is going

00:54up. I mean, so we don't know where we're going.

00:59I just think generally the cost of living in the whole area is going up drastically

01:03and it's not very helpful at all. Not helpful at all. Life's becoming quite tough in the

01:08UAE generally. People are just surviving these days. It's very, very hard.

01:13Yeah, it's going to affect us because people, especially here, they never thought of a petrol

01:18increase in this area. So yeah, it's going to be really tough.

01:23Of course, it will be difficult for all the people in different, we can say, categories.

01:32It's really bad actually. Everybody, everything is rising up in here, so living in UAE is

01:39becoming difficult day after day. So, so bad. So bad to hear about that.
