JAKARTA As part of the commitment to meet energy needs including LPG 3 Kg for the community and ensure that distribution runs smoothly, Pertamina Patra Niaga conducts regular checks in the field.

Pertamina's President Director Patra Niaga Riva Siahaan conducted a direct review of several LPG 3Kg official bases and grocery stores in South Tangerang City, Banten, Friday, September 6.

"In terms of stock and supply at the 3Kg LPG base, it is very safe, so the focus of today's checks is to ensure that the distribution in the last chain of distribution reaches the community and monitor the recording of 3 Kg LPG transactions that have been carried out digitally," explained Riva.

The 3 kg LPG bases visited include Tegal Rotan Base, Pipin A Base, Rotan Raya grocery store and Hutajulu grocery store in Ciputat District, Tangerang. The four of them were observed to have sufficient stock.

"The visit to LPG 3 Kg Base is a routine activity of Pertamina Patra Niaga, in addition to ensuring stock and distribution, we also ensure that the base sells LPG 3 Kg according to the Highest Retail Price (HET) set by the local Government and checks prices at the retail level," said Riva.

Also present at the field review were the Chairperson of the Tangerang DPC Hiswana Migas and the Representative Office of Industry and Trade (Disperindag) of South Tangerang to coordinate to carry out synergies to monitor the distribution of 3 kg LPG and review the implementation of 3 kg LPG digital transactions through the Pertamina App Merchant (MAP) at Pangkalan.

"For the data collection program in the early stages of collecting data, we asked for a consumer ID card. Then I checked whether the customer's Population Identification Number (NIK) was registered or not. If it has not been registered, we will ask for a customer's Family Card (KK)," said Pipin, one of the owners of the base visited.

Pertamina Patra Niaga will continue to increase supervision and distribution of this subsidized 3Kg LPG on target. If people still find unreasonable prices or further information about the Proper Subsidy Program and Pertamina's product services, the public can contact Pertamina Call Center (PCC) 135.
