Boss! Can I borrow some cash from your union ? Banks are not giving anymore! Don't offer fuel at black market rates, can't afford that now!

Well, most of the three wheeler drivers lost a lucrative business selling fuel in black market when QR system was introduced. Their union even refused to acknowledge there was such a thing going on among their members. They never thought about the country or the plight of other people.

Three-wheel drivers need to be supported as business people. They should be entitled to far more fuel that V8 users who does just to go to and from from home to office or otherwise from religious places to wherever.

There are a few matters that needs the ministers attention which to be resolved fairly urgently, including the fuel quota for three wheelers, and the issuance of diesel for standby generators in apartment complexes to enable it to operate critical equipment. For example in relation to the latter, the Divisional Secretariat in Dehiwela which received application forms a long while ago (supposedly to facilitate the issuance of a QR code for same), have not processed the applications as yet as they are said to be still 'waiting on instructions' to process them. We have come a long way from the days of the extremely long queues, but there are a few more matters that need to be resolved expeditiously to bring us closer to normalcy.
