YOGYAKARTA - The Yogyakarta Special Regional Police (Polda) anticipates various potential misuses of bulk cooking oil into packaging by intensifying monitoring in a number of traditional and modern markets in the local province.

"We have anticipated that the first is fraudulent acts of repackaging or repacking, packing palm bulk oil into packages," said the DIY Regional Police Chief Inspector General Asep Suhendar after monitoring the availability of food at the modern market, Jalan Kaliurang, Ngaglik, Sleman, as reported by Antara, Tuesday, March 29.

Asep said that the packaging of bulk palm oil into packages violates the rules in Law No. 18 of 2012 concerning Food and Presidential Decree No. 71 of 2015 concerning Storage of Staples and Important Goods.

According to Asep, another potential fraud that may be carried out by certain individuals is the transfer of the allocation of palm bulk cooking oil for MSMEs and household consumers to industry.

"I think we control this every day and our distributors see, we monitor every day, the fairness of the amount of oil distributed to retail, both in the market and in modern markets," said Asep.

The Head of Domestic Trade at the DIY Industry and Trade Department Yanto Apriyanto said that the high price disparity between packaged cooking oil and bulk cooking oil has the potential to cause this deviation.

He also emphasized that illegal packaging of bulk cooking oil can be dealt with in accordance with applicable laws.

"If everyone makes packaging that doesn't comply with the regulations, it will be subject to legal regulations. The permit must be fulfilled," he said.
