JAKARTA - Starting January 1, 2024, the government requires the purchase of LPG cylinders only for registered users. For this reason, the Director General of Oil and Gas at Tutuka Ariadji asked people who have not registered to register immediately.

To register, the public only needs to show an Identity Card (KTP) and Family Card (KK) at the official Distribution/Pangkalan.

"The public does not need to worry because the registration process is very easy, fast, and safe. It is enough to show ID cards and families," said Tutuka, quoted on Saturday, December 23.

He added that the public can bring Identity Cards (KTP) and Family Cards (KK) to collect data on Pertamina's website-based system (mechant apps).

In addition, the public can also check their status in the official sub-distributor or base to ensure that they are registered as LPG users of 3 kg or not.

Later, people who enter the Distribution database for the Acceleration of the Elimination of Extreme Poverty (P3KE) and Integrated Social Welfare Data (DTKS) can buy 3 kg LPG by showing their ID card.

He added that the data collection of 3 Kg LPG users as the first step in the transformation process was carried out from March 1 to December 31, 2023.

Tutuka explained that the data collection of 3 Kg LPG cylinder users was a follow-up to the 2023 Financial Note which stated that the Government's commitment to take steps to transform 3 kg LPG cylinder LPG subsidies to be target recipients or by name by address and integrated with social protection programs gradually.
