Trucks queue back at the gas station

Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan (AntaranewsKalsel) - The long queue of truck, cars, and other types of motor vehicles are again occurring at several public filling stations (SPBU) in South Kalimantan.

At some gas stations on Jalan A Yani, among others, at kilometer 17, Banjar District, and at kilometer 26 of Banjarbaru city, on Saturday, trucks lined up long enough to get subsidized fuel type of diesel.

Similarly, in Jalan Trikora, Banjarbaru, at the gas station that is not in cooperation with Pertamina, truckers must patiently queue up in long rows to get a diesel.

The queue is spilling out from the gas station area to the edge of the highway, so any vehicle passing through the area should be extra careful to avoid traffic accidents.

In addition, other types of fuel such as premium sometimes empty at certain gas stations, so the buyer must look to other gas stations.

"Supply of gasoline (premium) are uncertain lately," said a driver.

Secretary of Commission III of DPRD South Kalimantan H Riswandi SIP admitted confused about the state of the supply of fuel, such as diesel, premium, and pertalite, which are sometimes not normal.

For example, at kilometer six Jalan A Yani gas station in Banjarmasin in two days has not served premium charging, except pertamax and pertalite.

The Commission III which is in charge of transportation, mining, and energy is intended to invite Pertamina for questioning.

"If the fuel supply abnormalities that become the needs of the people still happen, Insya Allah we are from Commission III DPRD South Kalimantan scheduled a meeting with Pertamina," he said.
