The barcode and QR code system is being implemented at fuel stations along the Yangon-Mandalay Expressway and in cities in other regions and states, according to the Ministry of Energy.

For this purpose, the ministry is conducting training staff to facilitate the continued implementation of the barcode and QR code system, which is also being extended to vehicles that have difficulty using barcode and QR code scanning, as well as to small commercial vehicles and other commercial sectors. In addition, fuel stations are selling fuel to vehicles based on their permitted purchase limits and are working to ensure that there is no fuel shortage. The Ministry of Energy has advised the public not to worry, and the people have to purchase fuel only what they need. It also stated that anyone experiencing difficulties in purchasing fuel may file a complaint.

Similarly, the Ministry of Energy is overseeing fuel sales through the Online Monitoring Centre, which monitors fuel distribution across Myanmar in accordance with ministry’s regulations, as part of efforts to address fuel shortages experienced in many countries worldwide.
