In order to avoid burdening gas station operations, including LPG CNG, the size limit required for IEE and EIA was allowed only up to the previous maximum of 76,800 gallons. Now, The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection has announced on August 23 that it has been increased to start storing more than 76,800 gallons.
Whenever there was difficulty in extracting fuel at the Thilawa port, a shortage of fuel would occur at the local fuel stations, and we were forced to queue up to buy it.
In the beginning of last July, due to continuous rain, it was difficult to get fuel due to transportation difficulties, and queues were formed at gas stations. In the second week of August, queues to purchase occurred again, and long queues occurred at small gas stations where there was no queue to purchase before.
