MISA said it was concerned about the turmoil and rapid escalation in the price of crude oil and gas after US President Joe Biden announced banning all imports of oil and gas from Russia to pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine. Spokesperson Sonja Carstens said Central Energy Fund data indicated that South Africans would face another record-high fuel price hike in April.Carstens added that rising fuel costs directly impacted on each MISA member's own transport costs to get to work. Carstens said taxi operators warned that fares must increase so that they can recover losses.
