MANILA, Philippines — Unioil is projecting another round of increases in the prices of diesel and gasoline by next week.

In an advisory on Saturday, Unioil said the prices of diesel may go up by P8 to P8.30 per liter.

Meanwhile, the prices of gasoline may increase by P2.90 to P3.10 per liter.

The projected increase next week follows a big rollback in prices of petroleum products that started last Tuesday: P11.45 for a liter of diesel, P5.45 for gasoline, and P8.55 for kerosene.

Before this rollback, there were 11 weeks of uninterrupted hikes in fuel prices since January.
