Can't imagine how difficult it would be to run a fuel dependant business with a shortage of fuel. Could also understand why it might discourage yachts and vessels from visiting which would be a big loss to the local economy.

Let alone the outer Islands and fishing boats who cannot come in if they have outboards, and Island boats running on diesel will now be affected as well

The situation really is deplorable and disappointing that fuel suppliers and the government did not care enough to plan better.

The lack of forethought regarding the fuel shortage for the citizens and the visitors to Vava'u is unacceptable.
