Massive billing issue on my @dialoglk account.
Repeated unknown charges like IB_BID2WIN_DAILY (Rs. 6.00) and IB_VANUNCLE (Rs.2.40) appearing continuously without consent.
Looks like a recurring SMS-based gaming/subscription scam, possibly linked to radio promotions.

Why do MPs pay ~ Rs.7,500+ in APIT (income tax) while others pay Rs.55,000+ for the same salary?

⭕️ MP Ramanathan Archchuna has publicly shared his Parliament salary slip for March 2026, stating that the public should be aware of the earnings received by Members of Parliament.

⭕️ According to the document shared by the MP, the gross monthly salary and allowances amounted to Rs. 415,169.93. After deductions totaling Rs. 19,308.71, the net salary credited to his account was Rs. 395,861.22.

⭕️ One of the clear differences comes from APIT. For a gross salary of Rs. 415,169.93, anyone working in the private or government sector would typically pay Rs. 55,000+ in taxes, but MPs pay only around Rs. 7,500+. The reason is that the government at the time has effectivitly creating a different tax structure for MPs.

So, how is taxable income calculated when it comes to MPs and higher-ranking government officials?

⭕️ The new 36% maximum APIT income tax system came into effect in January 2023, and MPs initially paid taxes on their income just like any other taxpayer.

⭕️ However, in the very next month (February 2023), the IRD introduced an amendment related to non-cash benefits. This was designed in a way that significantly favored MPs: under the amendment, only 25% of their vehicle, fuel, and communication allowances are considered taxable.

⭕️ As a result, MPs’ tax liability dropped from around Rs. 76,000 to about Rs. 17,000, while virtually nothing changed for regular taxpayers.

⭕️ With the 2025 revision of the tax code, particularly the elimination of the 12% tax bracket, the tax liability for MPs was further reduced to around Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 7,500, while others earning a similar income continue to pay over Rs. 55,000.

THE BIGGEST LOCKDOWN SINCE COVID IS ALREADY UNFOLDING—AND THEY'RE HIDING IT IN PLAIN SIGHT UNTIL YOU CAN'T ESCAPE IT !!!! #LOCKDOWNS

This isn't "just" about the war.
This is about how the war is deliberately strangling your freedom, your wallet, and your ability to move—without ever admitting it's a lockdown.

The dominoes are falling faster than anyone wants to admit:

Oil is already smashing through $110–$113 per barrel (Brent hovering around $112 right now), and insiders are openly planning for $150, $175, or worse. United Airlines' CEO just admitted they're slashing 5% of flights immediately and modeling oil at $175/barrel holding through the end of 2027. That's not a forecast—it's their operating reality. Flights vanish. Travel dies. Your vacations? Gone.

Trucking costs are exploding overnight. Every single product on every shelf—food, clothes, medicine—will skyrocket as freight becomes unaffordable. Supply chains choke.

Fertilizer shipments are literally stuck—unable to pass through the blocked Strait of Hormuz, where a third of global seaborne fertilizer trade normally flows. Farmers can't get what they need for planting season. Crops fail. Food shortages hit hard. Prices at the grocery store? Prepare for the kind of surge that makes 2020 look like a mild inconvenience.

Gasoline is racing toward $5, $6, $7+ per gallon domestically—and that's before full panic sets in. You'll cut back driving because you have to. Then governments step in and make you.

It's already happening overseas—and it's the blueprint:

- Japan tapping emergency reserves but still facing shortages.
- South Korea capping fuel prices for the first time in decades while prepping energy vouchers and boosting coal/nuclear just to survive.
- Bangladesh, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Myanmar—all imposing outright fuel rationing, four-day workweeks, school closures, "avoid non-essential travel" orders, work-from-home mandates, and cuts to electricity/air conditioning/elevators to conserve.
- Australia's officials already whispering "avoid non-essential journeys"—the exact same language they used in 2020.

They called it "public health" back then.
Now it's "energy conservation" or "national security."
The result? Identical.

You won't be allowed to leave your home without "essential" justification.
Travel permits. Digital tracking. Restricted zones.
They'll never call it a lockdown—they'll call it "temporary energy rationing measures" or "wartime conservation protocols."

But make no mistake: it's the same cage, just rebranded.

The war gave them the perfect cover.
High oil gave them the economic trigger.
Your compliance gives them the power.

They're not warning you because they don't have to.
By the time you realize it's too late... you'll already be locked down in everything but name.

Stock up. Move now if you can.
Because once the "energy measures" go nationwide, the doors slam shut quietly—and they won't reopen until they decide you've learned your place. 😡🚨⛽️

[Lukas Ekwueme @ekwufinance]

Australia is one of the biggest losers in this energy crisis

- 90% of its fuel imports are coming from Asia
- ~60% of Asia’s oil imports come from the Middle East

How long until Asia imposes an export ban on fuel imports as their own countries are entering a deep crisis?
