HANOI: Some gas stations in Vietnam's two biggest cities and adjoining districts have shut or limited sales this week, witnesses and state media said on Tuesday, amid concerns about a fuel supply crunch spreading in the Southeast Asian country.
On Friday, the Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Hong Dien said Vietnam was not facing fuel shortages, seeking to calm fears after some petrol stations in southern cities cut or limited sales.
The official Vietnam News Agency reported on Tuesday that some gas stations in the country's business hub of Ho Chi Minh City had shut, or stopped selling gasoline, while maintaining diesel sales.
