BABEL - Central Bangka Police have alerted a number of its members at the public gas station (SPBU). The police were placed to maintain smooth running and order to refuel oil following the recent increase in the price of subsidized fuel.

"We are alerting members after the increase in fuel prices for order and smoothness of the situation in line at gas stations," said Central Bangka Police Chief, AKBP Moch Risya Mustario in Koba, Bangka Belitung Islands Province (Babel), quoted from Antara, Wednesday 7 September.

He explained that members who were alerted at gas stations only helped maintain security and order so consumers felt safer when lining up at gas stations.

"We also urge that there be no more wholesale action and filling up large amounts of fuel at gas stations, it can trigger a commotion at gas stations," he added.

In addition, Risya said that her members also socialized social assistance policies as a mitigation of fuel price adjustments and tightened the implementation of the FGD.

His party also provides education to the public through Bhabinkamtibmas regarding social assistance policies as an alternative to distributing fuel subsidies that are more targeted.

"Also providing education to the public in the digital space by public relations ranks as counter-narrations that are provocative and hoaxes aimed at creating security and social order in Central Bangka Regency to remain safe and conducive," he said.

His party also distributed nine basic commodities (sembako) to beneficiaries, to help maintain a balance of household expenses.

"So we are not only a matter of security, but also a matter of social life for the community," he said.
