It’s a good week for motorists as fuel prices in the Philippines are going down again for the third straight week. For the period of May 9 to May 15, 2023, gasoline and diesel products will see a bigger decrease in prices than in previous weeks.

According to the latest advisory from various fuel companies, gasoline prices will go down by P2.20 per liter, while diesel prices will decrease by P2.70 per liter. Last week, the rollbacks for gasoline and diesel were P1.50/L and P1.30/L, respectively. This is a welcome relief for car and motorcycle owners who had to pay high prices at the pump in April.

Kerosene prices also have a rollback of P2.55 per liter, which is again bigger than last week’s P1.40/L decrease.
