domestic gasoline and diesel prices on Monday by NT$0.2 (US$0.0066) per liter, pushing prices at the pump to a five-month high.
After the price adjustment, which will take effect at midnight Sunday, prices at CPC gas stations around Taiwan will rise to NT$22.2 per liter for super diesel, NT$24.5 per liter for 92 octane unleaded, NT$26 per liter for 95 unleaded and NT$28 per liter for 98 unleaded.
