AT LAST much needed reduction in commodity prices for the average Gambian,this could be the beginning of a genuinely happy smiling coast under a new administration.

Government sources have confirmed to this paper that the price of cement which was costing D325 has now D280.

The source added that by first weeks of April, it will be costing D260.

In similar development, officials sources have it that a price of rice will be significantly reduced starting from the first week of April and would cost less than a thousand dalasis.

Foroyaa has been reading Bantaba in Cyberspace again,GREAT,sometimes administrations have to "reminded" of their promises,
======================================================================

Complaints from readers indicate that people are not seeing a correlation between reduction of customs and excise duties and reduction of prices. It is therefore important to know what is responsible for the price rises after a reduction in duties.

One thing that is certain is the absence of price control. Many citizens have witnessed the existence of price control in the 1970s and are calling for its reintroduction. A liberal economy however may introduce regulatory policies but would not be able to impose price control. Foroyaa will investigate the prices of basic commodities and gauge how much is being paid on taxes on those commodities.
