 Oil prices topped 60 dollars a barrel for the first time in six months Tuesday, boosted by a plunge in the dollar that made greenback-priced oil cheaper for buyers armed with stronger currencies. In London, Brent North Sea crude for June delivery rose 46 cents to settle at 57.94 dollars a barrel. |

By Barbara Kiviat Monday, May. 18, 2009  As the U.S. descends from its decades-long, debt-fueled, free-spending high, Americans are finding ways to save more money. In March, the average person saved 4.2% of disposable income, compared with just 0.2% a year earlier. Thanks to a deep recession, our buy-it-now-and-buy-it-big culture is moving into a lower gear, at least temporarily. |

By : ROKIAH ABDULLAH, Kuala Lumpur I WISH to know whether doctors working in government hospitals are allowed to tell patients to buy equipment and other things from sales people. As far as I am aware, this is not allowed. And that was why I was surprised when my cousin in Johor Baru told me that he was told by a doctor there to buy expensive equipment for his child when he took the child for a medical check-up. |

Wednesday May 6, 2009 I REFER to the letter from T S Ramasamy, “Limiting supply of medicines a burden on the aged” (The Star, May 4), and would like to air my view on the issue. Although his view is of good intent in its context, I beg to differ on the practice of dispensing too much medicinal supply to one patient to cover a long period as there are more cons than pros. |
