From Wednesday, cooking gas price is down by VND4,500 (20 US cents) per 12kg canister, distributors and retailers in HCM City said.
The retail price for end consumers from large companies, such as PetroVietnam Gas JSC, Liquefied Gas Company Limited Vietnam, Saigon Petro Co Ltd. and Vietnam National Petroleum Group, will fluctuate at some VND330,000 to VND340,000 per 12kg canister.
According to distributors, the reason for a drop in domestic March gas price is the decrease in world gas price in March, down by $15 per tonne to $540 per tonne.— VNS
