JAKARTA - Perum Bulog plans to revive the Natura rice program for State Civil Servants (ASN) and TNI-Polri. The plan is based on the abundance of rice stocks currently controlled by Bulog.
The President Director of Perum Bulog, Ahmad Rizal Ramdhani, revealed that his party was still waiting for the blessing to realize the plan.
Furthermore, Rizal said the rice used for the Natura program was medium quality.
"Hopefully if it can get blessings. In the past, we TNI, Polri, and ASN were able to get Natura. While Bulog rice is abundant, we suggest that in the future TNI, Polri, and ASN also get Bulog rice like Natura in the old days when we were small," he said when met at the Bulog Warehouse, Jakarta, Wednesday, May 6.
In addition, Rizal also revealed Bulog's strategy to accelerate rice distribution. Among them, by involving all government stakeholders, ranging from local governments (Pemda), TNI-Polri to the Kita Food House (RPK).
"We involve the TNI, Polri, Pemda, then business friends, even to modern retailers. Alfamat, Indomaret, including the RPK-RPK we have. We do this," he explained.
In addition, Rizal revealed that the government's rice reserve stock in the Perum Bulog warehouse had reached 5.2 million tons.
The number is the highest in history.
