Price of cooking gas bottle is likely to reach 280,000 LBP after lifting subsidies?

The Secretary of the Gas Distributors Syndicate, Jean Hatem indicated that “the price of a bottle of cooking gas will reach 280,000 LBP, amid the total lifting of subsidies.”

He said that companies have a sufficient stock, but the problem is in pricing.

Hatem said: “The reality of gas is similar to diesel and gasoline,” stating that there are several factors behind the hike in prices mainly because the global prices are rising.”

Hatem added: “We prefer to set the prices in the Lebanese pound, but at the real price of the dollar.”
