Its symbolic move of defiance. Calbee has been queried by the govt for contradicting their "no shortage" claim.

Petrol firms in Japan suggested the cabinet to take measure in reducing demands bcs they knew the numbers better in April but govt ignored.

Calbee didn't retract their decision aftet queried. The shortage is true, it's a marketing to make it clear.
