Subsidized Fuel Buyers' Restrictions Are Still Unclear Even Though The Applicants Are Almost 3 Million

JAKARTA - The government has never restricted the purchase of subsidized fuel oil (BBM) types of pertalite and diesel. In fact. MyPertamina application registrants have reached 2.8 million.

Pertamina Patra Niaga Corporate Secretary Irto Ginting said the number of registrants for subsidized fuel continues to grow.

"There have been around 2.8 million registrants so far," said Irto, Monday, October 17.

Irto explained that the most registrants were pertalite users. Irto said that until now only 2 million had been verified and received a QR Code to be used when buying subsidized fuel.

The rest, he said, are still waiting for the data verification process because there are still shortcomings in attaching several predetermined requirements.

"We don't reject it, but there are less data registrants. We provide notifications to complete it," said Irto.

On the other hand, Irto again said that the exact date of the restriction could not be carried out because it was still waiting for the revision of Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 191 of 2014.

"We are still waiting for a revision of Presidential Regulation (Perpres) Number 191 of 2014," he said.
