JAKARTA - Cooking oil producer, PT Megasurya Mas Sidoarjo, East Java (Musim Mas Group) belonging to conglomerate Bachtiar Karim, is trying to meet the needs of the community in the form of cooking oil in the form of premium packaging, simple packaging or bulk cooking oil.

This effort is in support of the government's policy of setting one price for cooking oil. Namely for premium packaged cooking oil of Rp. 14,000 per liter, simple packaging of Rp. 13,500 per liter and bulk cooking oil of Rp. 11,500 per liter, until it reaches the hands of consumers/users (end users).

The commitment of PT Megasurya Mas (Musim Mas Group) in this distribution has continued since the directive from the government issued the Minister of Trade Regulation regarding the price of cooking oil.

Every day including Saturday-Sunday holidays, Megasurya Mas (Musim Mas Group) continues to distribute cooking oil optimally.

HRD & Public Relations Manager of PT Megasurya Mas (Musim Mas Group) Ponco Agung, said that to support the government's program in the procurement of cooking oil, the company, which is located on Jl Tambak Sawah Waru, Sidoarjo, does not recognize holidays. Sundays are still operating as usual.

"Even though it's a holiday, we continue to distribute cooking oil to areas in need, in collaboration with the provincial and city regencies' Industry and Trade Offices," said Ponco Agung in a written statement, Monday, February 14.

The distributors responded positively to the sale of bulk cooking oil. Even though it's Sunday, distributors still make purchases and are served optimally.

"This shows that there is a good synergy and commitment between producers, distributors and MSMEs/IKM to meet the availability of cooking oil in the community," said Ponco.

Megasurya Mas (Musim Mas Group) has also conducted market operations in several areas in East Java, such as Surabaya, Sidoarjo, Pasuruan, Kediri, Nganjuk, the city and districts of Mojokerto, Ponorogo, Trenggalek, Bondowoso, Tuban and Banyuwangi. This market operation received appreciation from the public and the Governor of East Java Khofifah Indarparawansa.

With this step, it is hoped that there will be no more shortage of cooking oil in the market or in stores in various regions.

Poncho Agung as HRD & PR Manager reminded the public not to panic buying more than they need. The government has guaranteed the availability of cooking oil.

"As a producer of cooking oil, Megasurya Mas (Musim Mas Group) will also provide various types of cooking oil, including premium SUNCO and AMAGO oils (Musim Mas group products) and ALIBABA simple packaging as well as bulk cooking oil," said Ponco.

With good cooperation with stakeholders and business actors, it is hoped that the availability of cooking oil at affordable prices can be fulfilled at this time and before the fasting of Ramadan and on Eid al-Fitr later.

For information, cooking oil products from Musim Mas include SunCo, M & M, and Amago.
