Ras Al Khaimah: Cooking gas prices have been revised and residents are urged to complain against distributors in case of high charges.
The normal 22kg cooking gas cylinder will be sold for Dh86 until April 8, whereas the smaller 11kg cylinder will be available for Dh43. The bigger 44kg cylinder will be sold for Dh172. The Department of Economic Development released yesterday the monthly cooking gas prices with a slight increase compared to last month's prices, where the normal cylinder was sold for Dh85.
Check company logo
The department urged the public to check the logo of the filling company. A senior official at the department said the sticker is a key condition for the safety of the gas cylinder as the filling gas company is responsible for any defects in the cylinder or expired gas.
The department launched yesterday its website http://www.economic.rak.ae. Dr Hassan Al Alkim, the department's Director General, said soon services will be available online. The department urged residents to report their complaints at 07/2221722 or 8007253266.
