The Commercial Transport Operators have issued this urgent call to action to the Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Trade and Industry, Ministry of Finance, and the Parliamentary Select Committee on Trade and Industry, Transport, and Finance. In March 2025, “we engaged with spare parts dealers and government officials, and a promise was made to reduce the prices of spare parts. Unfortunately, this promise has not been fulfilled, and the prices remain exorbitant”.
The situation is becoming increasingly unsustainable, and they fear that if immediate action is not taken, it will escalate, and they may be forced to take drastic measures that could disrupt transportation services. They cannot continue to operate under these conditions and urge the relevant authorities to intervene.
They specifically call on the Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Trade and Industry, and Ministry of Finance to ensure that spare parts dealers adhere to their promise of reducing prices. Additionally, they request the Parliamentary Select Committee on Trade and Industry, Transport, and Finance to add their voice to this matter and hold the relevant stakeholders accountable.
If the government fails to address this pressing issue, it will have severe consequences for their industry and the economy as a whole. They expect swift action to resolve this matter, and it is imperative that the government takes immediate steps to mitigate the situation. The transport sector’s stability is crucial to the nation’s economy, and they cannot afford further delays.
