The National Police's Food Task Force prioritizes monitoring the distribution of rice carried out by government agencies in charge of filling stock vacancies in modern retailers.

Head of the National Police Food Task Force, Brigadier General Whisnu Hermawan, said that one example of the distribution of rice is currently being carried out by the DKI Jakarta BUMD, namely the Food Station.

"For the Jabodetabek area, there is currently an increase in the volume of premium rice distribution in several Modern Retail DC (Distribution Center) warehouses and stable rice supply at PIBC," said Whisnu as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, February 19.

According to Whisnu, the process of filling in the shortage of rice stocks in modern retailers by government agencies continues to be monitored by the National Police Food Task Force.

Another effort made by the National Police's Food Task Force in ensuring rice availability is to monitor rice production center areas.

From monitoring, said Whisnu, it is hoped that nothing will interfere with rice production elements and barriers to distribution from rice storage warehouses to markets.

In addition, Whisnu also ordered the ranks of the Directorate of Criminal Investigation of the Regional Police as Kasatgasda to take firm action against all forms of irregularities in the distribution of rice.

According to him, the National Police's Food Task Force Team is still taking action in the field ready to take action if irregularities are found. "The team is still going to the field," said Whisnu.
