00:00At sa mga gumagamit ng liquefied petroleum gas o LPG,
00:04asahan po ang panibagong taas presyo pagpasok ng Abril, bukas na po yan.
00:08At kawagdain niyan, mga kapanayam natin, LPG Marketers Association founder, President Arnel T.
00:14Sir Arnel, good morning!
00:16Magandang araw po.
00:18Sir, magkano po yung naasahan price adjustment natin sa LPG bukas?
00:22Opo. Well, after the adjustment po namin nitong nakaraang linggo,
00:27ito pong darating na April 1, magkakaroon po kami ng price adjustment na dalawang beses po ito
00:36because we do the staggered, pinaghati na lang po namin.
00:39Ang nakitira pa po na itataas ay sa April 1 is 5 pesos per kilo or 55 pesos per 11
00:47kilogram.
00:48At sa darating pong another week, which is that will be on April 7,
00:53it will be another 5 pesos or 55 pesos again per 11 kilogram.
00:59Okay, so in two weeks, tataas po ng 110 pesos. Tama po ano?
01:04Ang isang 11 kilogram.
01:06Opo.
01:07Sir, para lang po sa mga...
01:08Sorry, go ahead, go ahead.
01:10Yeah, this is after we already implemented a 20 pesos price increase this week.
01:16This is due to the freight cost. So yung tinatawag natin shipping cost.
01:21Yan po talaga ang nagpataas ng presyo.
01:25Plus of course, itong contract price or yung international market price
01:29na i-annunsyo po ng Saudi Aram kumamayang hapon.
01:33Opo.
01:34Sir Arnel, para lang po sa kalaman ng mga kababayan natin,
01:37yung LPG po ba natin, 100% imported yan?
01:40We do not refine LPG in the country?
01:43Well, ang LPG po natin, whether it is refined or finished product,
01:48pareho pong 100% imported po yan.
01:51Okay. Sa supply naman po, sir, hanggang kailan ba tayo tatagal?
01:55Hanggang middle of May. We have 35 to 40 days inventory.
02:00Kasama na po dyan yung mga vessel in transit na paparating this coming April.
02:06Pero as of today, yung pa lamang po ang na-secure namin hanggang sa middle of May.
02:12So sa kayo po, wala naman kayo nakikita ang senaryo na magkakaroon tayo ng kakulangan
02:16dahil may parating naman?
02:19Well, ang direction po naman ng Department of Entity sa amin,
02:23bumili lang ng bumili kahit anong presyo.
02:25Because ang problema po natin,
02:28pag gagayahin natin yung ginagawa ng ibang bansa,
02:32pagayon ng India and Vietnam,
02:34na sila ay may subsidy and meron hong government control on their prices.
02:39Pero ngayon po, they are run out of LPG.
02:43At saka pumipila po ang mga consumer.
02:45Yun po ang ayaw mangyari ng gobyerno dito po sa ating bansa.
02:49Sa mga nag-order naman po, may mga adjustment bang ginagawa?
02:52May limitation ba sa bilang na pwedeng bilhing LPG?
02:56Kasi yung hoarding ang iniiwasan natin.
02:59Opo, yun na po ang aming ginagawa ngayon.
03:01Lahat po ng aming mga refilling plant,
03:03I think even other company, ay pareho po kami ng direction,
03:07that we have the, yung tawag na kami doon,
03:11yung average monthly consumption nila in the past year.
03:17Yun po ang pinagbabasehan namin on a monthly basis.
03:20Kaya po alam namin ang volume requirement lang po nila.
03:24Pagka nakita po namin tubaas ang kanilang demand
03:27or yung kanilang request for product,
03:30tinong-control po namin dahil alam namin itatago lang po nila yan.
03:33Pinag-uusapan na rin po ba yung paglalagay ng price cap sa presyo ng LPG?
03:37And where do you stand on this?
03:39Well, napag-uusapan po yan,
03:41especially kahapon ng meeting sa Malacanang.
03:44Pero we are appealing to the government
03:49na huwag nilang gawin yan dahil we will end up like India and Vietnam
03:55na pipila talaga nagkakaroon ng ubusan ng LPG.
03:59Bakit?
04:00Dahil mapipilitan pong hindi mag-import ang mga private sector
04:05dahil pag hindi naman kikita,
04:07bakit pa sila magpaparating ng LPG?
04:10So in the end, it will end up to be a subsidy of the government
04:14which is, mas malala po yan dahil gagastos na naman po ang gobyerno
04:19para ho dyan.
04:20And it will not be effective dahil it happens in other countries.
04:25Even now, pagkatibignan po ninyo sa international news,
04:27talagang run out po ang LPG ng India and Vietnam.
04:31Ang problema lang ho, pag maging only ka nga,
04:34pag maging open-ended yung mga pagtaas,
04:37baka maging prohibitive na hindi na ma-afford
04:39ng mga kababayan natin ng LPG?
04:42Well, hindi naman po. May safety, safeguard naman po ang DOE.
04:45Like for example, regulated po ang permit namin mga LPG players,
04:51including yung facility namin,
04:53regulated po ng Department of Energy.
04:55They can visit, they can do the inventory,
04:58and they can get even yung aming tinatawag na BL or Bill of Lading
05:03na galing po doon sa binilhan namin ng LPG sa international market.
05:10Pwede ho nilang compute-in yun.
05:12At kung nag-overprice, they can charge us.
05:15Sa mga probinsya po ba, malaki yung difference ng presyo ng LPG?
05:19Tulad huwal ba sa gasolinahan sa probinsya, mas mahalo eh.
05:23Yeah, Visayas and Mindanao,
05:25mas mataas po ang presyo nila doon because of the transport cost na domestic.
05:30It is ranging from 100 to 150 per cylinder ang difference
05:34between Visayas and Mindanao and Luzon.
05:38May comment po yung ilang netizens eh,
05:40mula raw sa Iloilo at San Pedro, Laguna itong mga ito.
05:44Nauna na raw nagtaas ang presyo ng LPG sa kanilang lugar.
05:47Sabi pa ng taga San Pedro,
05:481,600 pesos daw po yung kada tanke ng LPG.
05:53May na-monitor ba tayong ganyan?
05:54At anong mga hakbang at pwedeng gawin sa mga ganyan?
05:57Okay, ganyan na po.
05:58Para ako magkaroon ng idea ng ating mga consumer,
06:03currently as of today, ang SRP po ngayon is 1,350 to 1,400.
06:09That should be the suggested retail price.
06:11Pag lumagpas po dyan, they can complain sa barangay or kaya sa PNP
06:17because there is a memorandum of agreement between the Department of Energy
06:22and the Philippine National Police.
06:24Yung 1,600 plus is overpriced po yan.
06:27Okay.
06:28Kahit po magtaas sa susunod ng mga linggo,
06:32ang amin po nga nakikitang SRP,
06:34which is ito po yung hindi na po po pwedeng sabihin ng mga retailer
06:37na wala silang kita.
06:39We already factor in their income dito, yung kanilang unit margins.
06:44It should be 1,450 to 1,500 by next week po ito, by April.
06:51That is in Luzon.
06:52Pagka Visayas and Mindanao, pwede pong mas mataas ng 100 to 150.
06:56Okay.
06:58So, linawin natin sa Luzon hanggang 1,500.
07:00May kita na po yung dealer dyan sa Visayas and Mindanao hanggang 1,600.
07:06Opo.
07:06Yan po ay after the increase next week.
07:10As of today, 1,350 to 1,400.
07:13Pag lumabas dyan, pwede nyo isumbong sa barangay at sa polis.
07:17Opo.
07:17Pwede po.
07:18Maraming salamat po sa inyo.
07:20Magandang umaga.
07:20LPG Marketers Association founder, Arnel T.
07:23Thank you, sir.
07:24Opo.
07:24Maraming salamat po.
07:26Maraming salamat po.
07:29Maraming salamat po.
07:29Maraming salamat po.
07:31Maraming salamat po.
