SUKABUMI – Residents of Sukabumi City are advised not to do wholesale actions or panic buying of cooking oil. As stated by the Mayor of Sukabumi Achmad Fahmi, the appeal was conveyed so that all residents could get cooking oil.

"Residents do not need to panic, let alone buying up large quantities of cooking oil for their personal interests, because it can affect supplies in the midst of limited supply and this wholesale action can disrupt conduciveness," said Achmad Fahmi, quoted from Antara, Monday, February 28.

According to Fahmi, currently the supply of cooking oil in traditional markets, minimarkets and other modern markets is sufficient and available every day. So, continued Fahmi, people don't need to panic, let alone take wholesale actions. However, residents must be wise to buy cooking oil as needed.

In addition, the Sukabumi City Government and other relevant agencies continue to strive to maintain the supply of cooking oil so that people no longer have trouble finding it. Not only that, the government also monitors the price sold in the market because it must be in accordance with the highest retail price (HET) that has been set by the central government.

Then, his party also coordinates with cooking oil providers such as agents, distributors, companies and entrepreneurs so that supply can be increased to meet public demand.

"We also appeal to traders and modern market managers/entrepreneurs to limit the amount of cooking oil they buy to consumers," he added.

On the other hand, Fahmi said that as he approached the holy month of Ramadan, his party had yet to receive reports of any important basic commodities (bapokting) whose prices had soared and their supplies were empty.

He said that so far, the supply is sufficient and nothing is scarce and the price is still stable, although there are some commodities whose prices have increased but are still within reasonable limits.

Therefore, anticipating price spikes and decreasing supplies because usually before Ramadan the demand increases, the Sukabumi City Government together with the Sukabumi City Police, Kodim 0607 Sukabumi City continue to monitor and supervise to keep it stable.
