JAKARTA - Chairman of Commission IV of the Indonesian House of Representatives, Siti Hediati Heriyadi or Titiek Suharto, stated that his party would summon Agriculture Minister Amran Sulaiman to ask about the polemic of mixed rice which caused losses of up to Rp100 trillion per year.

Titiek emphasized that the government must take firm action against polling companies so that they do not happen again in the future.

"We are concerned, yes, nowadays there are still mixed-oplos, big companies again. I think we have to take action so that there is a deterrent effect," said July 15.

According to Titiek, this dishonest company does not at all support the ideals of President Prabowo Subianto who wants to realize food self-sufficiency for the Indonesian people.

"We all want self-sufficiency, want to increase our food together," he said.

Therefore, Titiek emphasized that his party would question the issue of the polemic to the Minister of Agriculture.

"Almost every day we have a meeting with the Minister of Agriculture, we will definitely ask questions later," he said.

"(If the field inspection) is not yet, we are still busy with budget matters" added the Gerindra legislator.
