Canberra/Tokyo | South Korea, Australia’s top supplier of diesel and second-largest source of petrol, has implemented emergency measures to save oil including limiting car use, adding pressure on the Albanese government to outline its own plan to ration fuel.
South Korean President Lee Jae-myung’s government has urged citizens to curb petrol car use, ride bicycles, take shorter showers and use washing machines and vacuum cleaners only on weekends as part of a nationwide energy-saving campaign.
