DIESEL COSTS * Japan - Trucking exec hits continued high fuel tax
Tokyo,Japan -The Japan Times, by HIROKO NAKATA -Feb. 2, 2008: -- As crude oil prices surge, the provisional tax rates on gasoline and other fuels should be eased, especially those on pricey diesel oil burdening the land transportation industry, according to Akio Yajima, managing director of the Japan Trucking Association... The Japan Trucking Association, which comprises about 50,000 trucking companies, and other related industries meanwhile oppose spending road-designated tax revenues on such outlays as social welfare services. The group says such services should be financed by a broader range of taxpayers instead... The Liberal Democratic Party-New Komeito ruling bloc wants to extend the provisional tax rates, which have been in place for decades, for another decade...
