Pass the foreigner rental bill
All Landlords renting to foreigners for stay must register their tenants details at the nearest police station. Invest in the infrastructure- you won't be disappointed. You did it with Ghana card.
This is done in China to prevent crime and abuse by foreigners in China. Failure to comply is 6 months in jail and a fine.
What foreign criminal wanting to do ashawo, scam, etc would want their details at the police station? So Ghana becomes unattractive for nigerian scammers.

-Gov't should fund monthly workshops to educate Ghana Immigration on WHY they must secure our borders-this is lack of education and ignorance. Our forefathers died for you to have a country and today you are selling GH passport for $5k and 20GHS for crossborder?Educating is important. Gh can work and prosper. We can do this...

The price floor was introduced to protect GOIL's inefficiency. Star oil is also our own. We want fuel at reduced cost not wakye, Gobe or Kenkey at the filing station.

The policy is never meant to protect any small OMC but rather protect GOIL other inefficient, greedy OMCs with over bloated overheads.

You did it with free SHS..A booming economy is when consumers are able to spend and spend.....why are people spending, buying in Dubai, UAE? You get an organic economy not an artificial economy...it's still why things are so expensive. This is how China's economy grew.
Subsidise petrol to make it cost less, this will drive down prices and encourage alot and alot job creation, more consumer spend for you to make your money back through taxation.
Ghanaians will have alot to money to spend.
left to save for projects.
It also strengthens the cedi against the dollar, inflation...so you don't need to artificially pump billions of dollars to create artificial strong cedi. Instead use it to subsidise petrol. Cedi will stabilise naturally.
5 yrs jail and a fine for smugglers. For benefit of Ghana and Ghanaians ONLY
They focused on dollar and not petrol and wonder why economy never worked.....
You get 2 for 1 bargain..Ghana what are we doing struggling? lack of knowledge...

The dollers should be pumped to save the cedi, will you leave your children hungry when you have money in the room? It's a constitutional duty for the BoG to protect the cedi

If government really wants to protect the consumer they should opt for the price ceilings. Price floor only protects the business man to the detriment of the consumer

@Musa. Your religious bias has messed up your thinking completely. You compare fuel prices in Ghana with fuel prices in oil-rich Middle Eastern countries? Get some specialist help.

Star Oil, congrats!
Please stay firm, and dissociate yourself from this cartel group. They are vampires, milking Ghanaians and not seeking their well-being. You have shown compassion for Ghanaians, and demonstrated your humane feeling for mankind. God is going to guide your operations, and ensure your growth beyond your expectations. Kudos, and Ghanaians will continue to pray for you, for progress in all your endeavors.

The policy doesn't protect smaller firms(OMC), it's a big lie.
Have you ever seen any small firms(OMC) pricing above Goil, Total and shell?
And have you ever seen Total Goil and She'll pricing below the smaller firm before? So who does the policy protects?
The Policy is just there to protect the efficiencies of the Big three Oil Marketing companies.

Thank you sir. I'll forever remain a customer to Star Oil. It is sickening when you think that the government should be championing consumers welfare but that is not what we see. I'm sure Star Oil is making profit even with the low prices. The question is why does the rest of the oil comanies feel they must charge higher pump prices. This is sick.

Goil -- armed robbers
Total -- thieves
Shell - pick pockets
