JAKARTA - The Minister of Trade (Mendag) Zulkifli Hasan believes that the price of shallots will start to fall next week. As is known, currently the price of shallots has reached Rp80,000 per kilogram (kg).
The man who is familiarly called Zulhas said that the increase in domestic chili prices was only temporary. The reason, he said, was because the production center area was flooded, making the supply reduced.
"Onions were flooded for a while yesterday, yes, incidentally. Next week, it's also easy to get off. At least a week it's normal," he said at the Ministry of Trade Office (Kemendag), Jakarta, Thursday, April 25.
Therefore, Zulhas emphasized that there is no option to import shallots. He emphasized that Indonesian farmers are able to produce their own shallots. In fact, the production is sufficient to meet domestic needs.

"Want to go up, don't go up (price) onion, we can plant it. There is no import, already," he said.
Zulhas also said that if anyone dared to import shallots, they would receive firm action from the government.
"If someone enters the shallots outside we brush. So that's it," he said.
