Oil states urged to mind interests of non-producers
Power & Materials    12/25/2007 11:48:00 AM
 
AMMAN, Dec 25 (KUNA) -- The Arab Consumers Union Tuesday urged oil states to help non-producers as oil price hikes threaten to over-burden budgets and economies and affect living conditions.
A union statement said it hopes Arab producers show their customary generosity and care toward non-producers and offer solutions and proposals to alleviate the economic burden of soaring prices.
The statement cautioned that the price hikes are by now creeping onto basic commodities and staple goods and could dramatically affect living conditions and social structure in the region. The suffering is even greater in states already experiencing economic difficulties and challenge, the statement said.
