There will be no fuel scarcity in the country as adequate fuel was received and countrywide distribution has already begun, Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) Chairman W.W.D. Sumith Wijesinghe said.
He said the reason for the sudden fuel shortage was the consumers refueling more than the normal limits and stocking fuel in cans and barrels.
However, the government took measures to import sufficient volumes of fuel and began distributing throughout the country, he said. Ships containing fuel have arrived in the country and unloading is in progress now, Wijesinghe said.
Therefore, the CPC chairman requested the consumers not to panic and avoid standing in queues to get fuel. "Ships containing sufficient diesel, petrol, furnace oil, jet fuel and kerosene have reached the country.
Two shiploads of diesel are currently being unloaded, and another two are due on Monday and Tuesday, "the chairman said. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama)

Stocks are coming - but with what are you going to pay for it? Rajapakse wealth?
Mandayan Saturday, 05 March 2022 06:54 PM
Yes, if you have follies and pay, no scarcity of course!

Decipher the core problems that pushed the country to a fuel crisis, making the government to earn the warth of the masses. Responsible officials should be dealt with.
