According to the ministries of Industry and Trade and Finance, in this adjustment, the base prices of gasoline and fuel oil dropped slightly, while those of diesel oil and kerosene products rallied strongly. To support people's lives and the production and business activities of enterprises, the ministries decided to stop setting up the Fuel Price Stabilization Fund for diesel oil and kerosene products, and at the same time, start using the fund for these products, after not spending in many previous adjustments, to curb the high increase in the prices of diesel oil and kerosene products. The setting up level of the fund for gasoline and fuel oil products was kept unchanged to reduce their prices following the downward trend of global market prices.
