Malacañang asked the Department of Energy to make sure that there is adequate supply of liquefied petroleum gas in the country. This is in the face of warnings from the LPG sector regarding the impending LPG supply shortage because of the closure of the Shell Batangas LPG Refilling Station. Department of Energy Secretary Jericho Petilla was asked to investigate the matter and to prevent the rise in prices due to the alleged shortage.
