The Government is increasing fuel and cooking gas subsidies to cushion consumers and businesses from higher import costs, keeping prices unchanged for gasoline, diesel, kerosene and the 20-lb and 22-lb cooking gas cylinders. The prices took effect on October 5 and will remain in place until October 25, under the Government’s three-week fuel pricing cycle.
