(MENAFN- Emirates News Agency (WAM))

BEIJING,18th March, 2023 (WAM) – China will cut the retail prices of gasoline and diesel from Saturday, based on the recent changes in international oil prices, the country's top economic planner said.

Gasoline and diesel prices will dip by 100 yuan (about 14.48 U.S. dollars) per tonne and 95 yuan per tonne, respectively, said the National Development and Reform Commission.
