"So for people who need beef for Eid al-Adha needs, please come to the cheap market at the OKU Bulog Office," he said, Sunday, June 18.

"The average basic necessities are sold under the Highest Retail Price (HET) from the government. For the supply, God willing, it will meet the needs of the community," he said.

However, regarding frozen meat, he ensured that there would be no additional stock ahead of Eid al-Adha considering that during last year's celebration, many people received sacrificial meat.
