Fuel Supply Maldives (FSM) has decided to temporarily limit the sale of petrol amid a shortage in supplies.
Managing Director of FSM, Mohamed Gassam said that the two main private companies, Villa Fuel and Hawks Pvt Ltd who import fuel into the Maldives have run out of their fuel supply. FSM is the only company currently with available supplies thus the decision to limit the sale of petrol until the other companies can replenish their supplies.
Gassam also added that other companies will receive supplies within the next four or five days and the current restrictions will be lifted once they have replenished their supply of petrol.
