Harga Minyak Melepasi US140/barrel

Assalamualaikum
Semoga ceria dipagi Jumaat yang penuh barkah ini. Jangan pula apa yang saya catitkan disini membuat kita mencuka.Seperti dijangka harga minyak akan terus meningkat. Harga minyak mencatat paras tertinggi USD140.39 dan sedang berlegar sekitar USD139.89.

Ini merupakan tekanan kepada banyak kerajaan terutama di negara-negara membangun dan dunia ke3. US sedang bermain api. Dalam masa syarikat-syarikat minyak US mengaut keuntungan dan sumber bahan api alternatif semakin relevan, kegoyahan kerajaan di banyak negara turut akan memberi kesan negatif kepada US.

Putera Charles juga telah menyarankan untuk mengkaji kembali sosialisme untuk manutup kelemahan sistem kapitalisme yang digunapakai dunia hari ini. Barat masih tercari-cari idelogi alternatif lain tetapi hahikatnya mereka masih pi mai pi mai tang tu. Yang mereka dapat lihat penyelesaiannya samada kapitalisme atau sosialisme.

Ummat Islam tidak begitu. Kita melihat Islam sebagai penyelesaian bagi permasalahan kehidupan yang menjamin ketenangan hidup di dunia dan semoga Allah meredhai. Demonstrasi yang akan diadakan pada 6.7.087 menunjukkan tekanan hidup dan kemarahan rakyat Malaysia atas keputusan kerajaan menaikkan harga minya.

Walaubagaimana pun, menurunkan harga minyak bukan penyelesaian Islam. Minyak seperti sumber galian yang 'tidak' terbatas' lain, adalah milkiah am(kepemilikan umum) yang wajib diurus oleh negara sebagai milik rakyat. kalau nak kefahaman lanjut marilah ke seminar krisis minyak di UKM hari ini. sila layari www.khilafah.com untuk maklumat lanjut.

Semoga segala kegawatan hari ini merupakan retak menanti belah menuju kehancuran sistem kapitalisme. ISLAM PASTI KEMBALI TERTEGAK, ALLAHUAKBAR!!!

Oil rises past $140 a barrel, setting a record

NEW YORK: Oil futures rose to more than $140 a barrel, a new record, Thursday after OPEC's president said oil prices could rise well above $150 a barrel this year and Libya said it may cut oil production.
Light, sweet crude for August delivery settled up $5.09 at $139.64 a barrel after hitting an all-time high of $140.39 earlier, eclipsing the previous record of $139.89 a barrel hit on June 16 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In London, August Brent crude futures rose $3.88 to $138.16 on the ICE Futures Exchange.
Chakib Khelil, president of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, said he believes oil prices could rise to between $150 and $170 a barrel this summer before declining later in the year. Khelil said he does not think prices will reach $200 a barrel.
The head of Libya's national oil company said the country may cut crude production because the oil market is well supplied, according to news reports.
"Shokri Ghanem, the nation's top oil official, declined to say when a decision would be made on whether to lower production, or give any indication of the size of the cut under consideration," said Addison Armstrong, director of market research at Tradition Energy in Stamford, Connecticut, in a research note.
Oil futures were also rising as investors reassessed comments the Federal Reserve made Wednesday when it held a key interest rate unchanged.
Many investors who had expected the Fed to raise interest rates in August now think a rate hike is unlikely until after the November election or next year, said James Cordier, president of Tampa, Florida-based trading firms Liberty Trading Group and OptionSellers.com.
Interest rates affect the dollar; many analysts believe the Fed's rate cutting campaign, which began last September, had much to do with weakening the dollar against the euro and sending oil prices skyrocketing. Investors buy commodities such as oil when the greenback is falling. Also, a weaker dollar makes oil less expensive to investors dealing in other currencies.
The dollar slid against the euro after the Fed's comments Wednesday, and was down again on Thursday.
Breaking through $140 now "seems hard to avoid," Cordier said.
In other Nymex trading Thursday, July gasoline futures rose 9.04 cents to $3.4845 a gallon and July heating oil futures rose 11.58 cents to $3.865 a gallon. July natural gas futures rose 17.8 cents to $12.931 per 1,000 cubic feet.
