What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

Fuel shortages disrupted daily life on Bali, affecting residents and businesses on the tourist island. Authorities implemented an odd-even policy for vehicles buying subsidized Pertalite gasoline, alongside limiting refueling to 20 liters for cars and 3 liters for motorcycles. While queues in Denpasar and Badung regency have eased since the policy began, long queues persist in Buleleng and Jembran regencies.
