There is no use of queuing for petrol as stocks of fuel in hand with Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) storage facilities have run out, the Ceylon Petroleum Private Bowser Owners Association (CPPBOA) said.

They said there will be no fuel transportation taking place until Monday due to the weekend.

Nevertheless, diesel will be transported from tomorrow but not petrol, they said.

They said only 1000MT of petrol remaining at CPC storage will be used during the emergency situation.(Chaturanga Samarawickrama)

    What the hell is going in Sri Lanka? Everybody want to show that they are the leaders and are the decession makers? There is a minister for this already.

    There's nothing they can do even if they go home cos they can't do their day to day work! In some cases the men have got chased out of their homes!! So may as well stay in the queue, at least you will not lose your "place" in the queue!!

    Now everyone is a spokesman. We the public are at a lost to whom to listen. The "tweet minister" has gone silent after his petrol shipment went missing.......Hmmmm

    Concerned Minister's announcement through these days not to queue up for fuel were becoming utter LIE as contrary to the statement, all those days were delivered fuel through Bowsers to the respective Petrol Stations.

    "They said only 1000MT of petrol remaining at CPC storage will be used during the emergency situation." - what it means it is reserved for the rich!
