JAKARTA - Pemerintah kembali menegaskan isu liar yang berkembang. Tidak ada rencana menghapus dan tidak menggalikan kelompok pelanggan listrik dengan daya 450 Volt Ampere (VA).

President Joko Widodo emphasized that the government did not abolish and did not divert the electricity customer group with a power of 450 Volt Ampere (VA). The President hopes that the public does not need to feel restless about this.

"No, there is no deletion for the 450 (VA), there is also no change from 450 to 900 (VA), nothing," the President explained in his statement to reporters at the Gabus Toll Gate, Bekasi, West Java, Tuesday, September 20.

Jokowi reiterated that the government had never planned to make regulations regarding this matter. In fact, government subsidies for the public using 450 VA electricity are still provided.

"Don't let those below be restless because of the statement regarding it," continued the President.

To note, PT PLN (Persero) adjusts the electricity tariff to household customers to be able to non-subsidize the 3,500 VA class and above. This is stated in the Letter of the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources No. T-162/TL.04/MEM.L/2022 dated June 2, 2022 concerning Adjustment of Electricity Tariffs (in the period of JulySeptember 2022).

Quoted from the press release of PT PLN (Persero), household customers with power below 3,500 VA, business and industry, did not experience changes in tariffs. The purpose of this tariff adjustment is to realize a fair electricity rate where compensation is given to the eligible community.
