MSF CH (Doctors without Borders- Switzerland) have sent a team of 4 doctors to Banyak Islands and Simeulue on KM Sembilan. After some high drama caused by fuel rationing, Aus Aid helped out with documentation so that we could fill the tanks. Fuel is becoming critically short in many ports as facilities are overloaded. Sinabang (Simeulue Island) reports only 9 tons available. Prices have risen to Rp3,000 /ltr in the islands compared to the pump price of Rp1,850/ltr. Thanks to the Aus Aid team for their continuing support.
