JAKARTA - Minister of Agriculture (Mentan) Andi Amran Sulaiman found Minya Kita packaged cooking oil that was not in accordance with the dose at Lenteng Agung Market, South Jakarta.
The Minister of Agriculture found this during a surprise inspection (sidak) at the market located on Jalan Raya Jagakarsa, Jagakarsa Village, Jagakarsa District, South Jakarta, Saturday.
He explained that he went around and inspected to see firsthand the market conditions. During the inspection, the Minister of Agriculture found that Minya Kita was sold at a price above the Highest Retail Price (HET) which should have been Rp. 15,700 per liter, but sold for Rp. 18,000. In addition, the Minister of Agriculture also found that the contents of the MinyaKita packaging did not match those listed on the label, which contained only 750 to 800 milliliters.
"This is clearly not enough 1 liter," said the Minister of Agriculture in a firm tone.

The Minister of Agriculture proved the dose of cooking oil by buying the product from traders at the market. After that, the Minister of Agriculture ordered his staff who took part in the inspection to carry out an expansion using a 1 liter measuring measuring glass witnessed directly by the police from the Food Task Force.
As a result, from the results of the monitoring carried out, it was found that the oil only reached 0.75 liters to 0.8 liters. However, there are also other packaging that are in the size of 1 liter.
"Our brother is looking for a reward in the month of Ramadan, but instead he has a sin with this action," he continued.
The Minister of Agriculture emphasized that the company that did this must be processed if it is proven to have committed a violation.
"We ask for processing and if found guilty, we ask that this factory be closed and their products are sealed," added the Minister of Agriculture.
