In a radio interview from September 2010, the national director for macroeconomic policies, Carlos Panzo, said, that prices rise in Angola due to an ongoing reduction of fuel subsidies. Due to this interview, the budget savings arising from reducing the subsidies shall be invested into social projects as “education, health and social care” . According to the same article, fuel subsidies in Angola sum up to 4 billion dollars a year (as of 2010), which is equivalent to 6% of GDP.
 
 
 
It can be assumed that prices change seldomly, as the rise of prices of September 2010 seems to be the last price change as of November 29th 2010.
