PANGKALPINANG - Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Sumbagsel stopped distributing subsidized diesel fuel (BBM) at gas station 28,115,001 in Pangkalpinang, Bangka Belitung Islands Province because it had diverted the subsidized fuel. "We impose strict sanctions on distribution agencies that are proven to sell subsidized fuel that are not in accordance with the rules, namely the suspension of temporary suspension of subsidized fuel distribution," said Area Manager of Communication, Relations, and CSR of Pertamina Regional Sumbagsel Tjahyo Nikho in a press statement received in Pangkalpinang, Wednesday. Tjahyo Nikho said that the termination of the distribution of subsidized diesel fuel at gas stations was 28,115,001 as a form of Pertamina's firm steps to impose sanctions on this gas station. "For now, the distribution of subsidized diesel for fishermen has been diverted to gas stations 24,331.11 which is 3.7 kilometers from the location of the gas station 28,115,001 which received this sanction," he said. Tjahyo stated that Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Sumbagsel collaborated with the Bangka Belitung Islands Regional Police (Polda) in monitoring the distribution of subsidized fuel so that it was right on target and benefits. "The use of subsidized diesel fuel is a criminal act because it is very detrimental to the community and state," he said. This area Manager of Communication, Relations, and CSR of Pertamina Regional Sumbagsel appreciates the fast steps taken by the police who have succeeded in cracking down on this subsidized fuel abuse person. He invited the entire community to jointly oversee and oversee the distribution of subsidized fuel distribution.
