VOICED: Lack of available petrol fuels post-quake chaos

In Port-au-Prince, fuel queues form early as service stations struggle to meet demand. Workers attempt fair distribution, but impatience grows. Last year's quake destroyed many stations, exacerbating the issue. Some stations remain closed, unable to handle demand. Black marketeers exploit the situation, selling tampered fuel at high prices. Despite full fuel tanks at the port, distribution is hindered by security concerns, necessitating a convoy for safe delivery. Until resolved, fuel queues lengthen and tempers rise.
