 Consequences of subsidies: Mahrukat, Syria’s sole buyer and distributor, reported losses totaling S£372 billion (US$7.9 billion) in 2008, falling dramatically to S£14 billion (US$0.3 billion) in 2009 due to lower world prices and higher domestic prices. Subsidy in 2010 was reported to have topped US$2.9 billion. In May 2012, when the diesel price was raised to S£20/liter, government said the subsidies had exceeded S£250 billion (US$4 billion).
