The price of cooking gas in HCM City and the southern provinces has increased by VND18,000 (79 US cents) for a 12kg canister starting June 1.
The consumer retail price for 12kg canisters will now range from VND345,000 to VND374,000.
Gas traders said the latest hike is on account of the $57.5 per tonne increase in global gas prices this month compared to the previous month, raising prices to $560 per tonne. The price of domestic gas had to be adjusted in accordance with changes in the global market, traders said.
Agents, gas shops, and consumers in HCM City and the southern provinces have been informed about the new rates. — VNS
