#AnthonyAlbanese released a joint statement with the #Singaporean prime minister, #LawrenceWong, reaffirming the two nations would continue #trading in #energy.

#Singapore is one of the major sources of oil imported into #Australia; there has been growing concern from energy experts that nations will start keeping #oil for their own domestic consumption instead of exporting their usual amounts, following a statement from #Malaysia last week that the country’s government would “prioritise our own needs”.

The Australia-Singapore statement said the two countries would “support the flow of essential goods including petroleum oils, such as diesel, and liquefied natural gas between our two countries, and to #notify and #consult each other on any #disruptions with ramifications on the trade of energy.”

Imagine an #LNP / #OneNation response to #Australia’s energy crisis? ⛽️🛢️

"I'm hoping for 100 meters or more, on a spool," Minervie continued, trying to avoid his prying.

"Can I ask what this is for?" Mr. Panier insisted.

Chip looked up, suddenly paying attention to the tension he felt from his grandmother.

"I'm not here for a consult, do you have what I'm looking for or not?" Minervie was having none of this.

Mr. Panier responded, "I have other types of r..."

Minervie interrupted, "Then I'll go elsewhere, sorry for wasting our time."

"Minervie! Chip! Welcome back," said Mr. Panier, the owner of the local hardware shop. "I haven't seen you for a while."

Chip stood fascinated by the trinkets near the register display, ignoring the shop keep, while Minervie replied, "Oh, we were off to visit family, but we're back now. Anyway, I was wondering if you happen to have twine by the spool."

"Oh, twine isn't very strong, what is this for?" Mr. Panier asked.

"Pardon me, Mum," the one in front said, showing that he knew exactly with whom he was dealing — and that he understood the proprieties. "Our employer would like to #consult with you."
"It's been a long day," she said, with her hand resting on her knife. (2/3) #wss366
