China raises retail oil prices

Taxis wait to get their tanks filled before the rise in oil prices at a gas station in China's capital Beijing March 26, 2006. China will raise retail diesel and gasoline prices for the first time in eight months this weekend, but the 3-5 percent increase will leave refiners in the red and do little to deter fuel demand.
