Bankrupt nation’s energy minister apologises to motorists but unable to say when petrol and diesel imports will be restored
Sri Lanka has virtually run out of petrol and diesel after several expected shipments were delayed indefinitely, the energy minister has said.
Kanchana Wijesekera apologised to motorists as he said on Saturday that oil cargoes that were due last week did not turn up, while those scheduled to arrive next week will also not reach Sri Lanka due to “banking” reasons.
