JABAR - The West Java Provincial Government received 30 million liters of cooking oil from the Central Government.
West Java Governor M Ridwan Kamil said the 30 million liters of cooking oil would be distributed evenly to all regencies/cities to overcome the scarcity and high prices that were happening in various regions.
"We have dropped 30 million liters from West Java by the Central Government, we are arranging the distribution," said Ridwan Kamil after the operation of the cheap cooking oil market in Cintaratu Village, Parigi, Pangandaran Regency, Antara, Sunday, February 20.
The distribution center for 30 million liters of cooking oil is located in one area representing several regions. For Pangandaran, the distribution center is in Tasikmalaya.
"The distribution center is per region. For Pangandaran the distribution center is in Tasikmalaya. So later if there is anything, it can be resolved through management in Tasikmalaya," said Ridwan Kamil.
