Editorial - fuel crisis has improved

Commerce
Editorial: Fuel Crisis: From Temporary Fixes to Strategic Vision (Al-Adala, Sep, 4 2006, By Hamdi Hassan) The media have produced many articles about the fuel crisis, and this pressured the government and oil ministry to work hard to resolve the problem in two days. Now there are no long petrol queues, and no black marketeers on the streets. We want to thank all those who had a hand in stopping a problem that Iraqis had endured for months. We would have preferred it if the solution had been the fruit of a strategic plan rather than being forced by media pressure. We hope the oil ministry will provide a supply of oil products that exceeds the need, so that prices stabilise and there is no black market. The success needs to be sustained, and the oil ministry must put in place a permanent plan to eliminate the possibility of further crises.
(Al-Adala is issued daily by the Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq - SCIRI.)
