Strike starts from midnight today. The queues at some of the gas stations are huge!! The strike could last for 2-3 days.

This is a disaster! The country will come to a standstill! People won't even be able to visit their next door neighbours!

I seem to remember the last time there was a rumour of a strike it was just before the price went down...?

They managed to see all the stock in the tanks at the old higher price because of the panic buying.... :lol:

thats a disgrace: the government should leave those poor petrol station owners free to overcharge us by as much as they like, well they do with everything else on this godforsaken island.
