Tuks have an 8L capacity and have to pump atleast twice a day normally for hires. Imagine spending hours in a petrol queue twice a day - how many hires can they run? What is the opportunity cost of wasted time? Stop blaming people who are just trying to survive #EconomicCrisisLK

Most of the tuk tuks in fuel queues have tanks full of petrol.When they reach to the end of queue these mofos transfer fuel to containers and this fuel is being sold in black market at 750-800 rupees per liter. If you are looking for a system change here you have the roof cause.

On 27 April 2022, the Renewable Energy Associations announced that 1,251 MW of Non-conventional Renewable Energy (NCRE) plants will have to cease operating, as the CEB owes them Rs. 22 billion. ..
