Energy, or lack thereof, was a big issue in 2007. Prices have gone higher than ever before, affecting everything from heating to being able to afford bread. So to commemorate both the New Year and the wonderful announcement of the lifting of oil subsidies in 2008, coupled with the expected new price for a natural gas tank skyrocketing to 9.90JDs in a few weeks, I wanted to review some of Emad Hajjaj’s best work on the issue last year.
