MUARA TEWEH – The scarcity of cooking oil and the relatively high price has moved many parties. One of them is the Regional Company (Perusda) "Batara Building" in North Barito Regency, Central Kalimantan.

This Perusda took the initiative to sell 7,000 liters of bulk cooking oil to the public at a price of Rp. 14,000 per liter. The sale was made at the local Perusda gas station on Jalan Rapen Ring Road Muara Teweh, Saturday, March 9.

President Director of Perusda Batara Bangun Asianoor Aliazeki said the sale of bulk cooking oil was in collaboration with various parties, in order to help people get cooking oil, which at this time was still in short supply.

"In order to help the community, we are selling this cooking oil according to the HET of Rp. 14 thousand/liter. Each resident who comes can buy two liters of cooking oil by showing their ID card and vaccine card," he said, as quoted by Antara.

According to him, there are 7,000 liters of bulk cooking oil for the implementation of this activity. He obtained this cooking oil from a factory located in Pangkalan Bun, West Kotawaringin Regency.

"Hopefully, through what we are doing, we can help the community, especially in meeting the need for cooking oil in this month of Ramadan," said Asianoor. The sale of bulk cooking oil for Rp. 14 thousand/liter was enthusiastically welcomed by the local community by queuing up.

For purchases, the Perusda Batara Bangun set a limit of two liters per person, and residents who bought were asked to show their ID cards and vaccine letters as a condition for buying the cooking oil. There are also vaccination officers at the location to give to people who have not been vaccinated.

The Head of the Teweh Tengah Police, Kompol Reny Arafah, said the sale and purchase of bulk cooking oil at the Perusda gas station was safe and conducive.

"For a safe and conducive situation, according to our circular, people come with ID cards and vaccine cards. Coincidentally, many people here have not received the Booster vaccine," said Reny Arafah.
