JOHANNESBURG, Oct. 3 (Xinhua) -- The prices of petrol, diesel, and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) will increase in South Africa with effect from Wednesday due to local and international factors, the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy said on Tuesday.
As South Africa imports crude oil and finished products at a price set at the international level, including importation and shipping costs, the country's petrol, diesel, and illuminating paraffin will see different price increases, the department said in a statement.
