" It was a collective decision. 99% of service stations have complied , "found at the end of the afternoon the president of the Petrol Retailers Association , Bhanoo Seegobin. Since noon on Sunday, March 24th, petrol stations observe a half-day strike. They claim an increase in their profit margin from 2.5 to 6% and ask the authorities to act against the frequent robberies which they are victims.
This protest resulted in the midday queues at some stations, particularly in Port Louis, Rose Hill and Quatre-Bornes. " We asked our members not to push the laggards. They played the game , "said Bhanoo Seegoobin.
" We are not happy to be got there. But the authorities have not responded to our announcement. Now, after the first day of protest, we will take a new collective decision if need be, "says the president of the Petrol Retailers Association .
