Netizens Sum Up Petrol Crisis With Hilarious Memes

Pakistani awaam has a fun way of dealing with nationwide crisis.

It is total pandemonium out here as people rush to their nearest petrol pump to refuel ahead of nationwide strike. From rickshaws to buses, to motorcycles and family sedans, everyone is in panic mode.

Recently, the Pakistan Petroleum Dealers Association (PPDA) announced a nationwide strike. All because the government refuse to increase petrol dealers’ profit margin. The end result: chaos ensued as reports of massive traffic jams and long queues spawned all across Pakistan.

While everyone ran towards their nearest fueling station, waiting in long queues, Pakistani netizens found a way to make some hilarious memes out of the current state of things. Kudos to our awaam and their cheerful spirit in light of the situation. Here are some hilarious memes to help take your mind off the rising petrol prices and greedy petroleum dealers hoarding fuel for more money.
