Pertalite runs out at three fuel stations in Bali's Klungkung

Pertalite, a subsidized fuel, ran out at three fuel stations in Klungkung, a district on the Indonesian island of Bali.

Drivers went to the stations to buy Pertamax instead, and long queues formed.

The affected stations are in Semarapura Tengah, Semarapura Kangin and Takmung.

Residents said the shortage had been going on since the previous day.

One driver said people had been queuing from 7 a.m.

and that conditions were unusually severe.

The shortage has left residents wondering why subsidized fuel is unavailable, even in a relatively small district.

The account gives no explanation for the shortage or information about when supplies will return.

What people are saying

From yesterday it has been empty. Fuel is scarce. To buy Pertamax, we are queuing for a long time like this.
