CIREBON - West Java Governor M Ridwan Kamil ensured that food stocks, especially basic necessities, in the area were safe, but the selling price of bulk cooking oil was still high.
"In general, it is under control, but it is still found that there is bulk cooking oil whose selling price is still high," said Kang Emil, as Ridwan Kamil is known, in Cirebon as reported by Antara, Wednesday, April 13.
Kang Emil explained that in the West Java area, distribution of subsidized bulk cooking oil was carried out online through the Budiman Viewer Program (Ordering Cooking Oil Via the Greetings Application for Mothers Everywhere).
This step, said Kang Emil, was to avoid queues of residents buying cooking oil, especially during the fasting month.
"Indeed, in the regions we cannot control the supply-demand, but at least we can help with the buying method so that during the fasting month there are no queues, no one faints again because everything is done online," he said.
The Governor of West Java in Cirebon accompanied President Jokowi to monitor food stocks in several markets in Cirebon City.
In addition to monitoring food stocks, the President also distributed direct cash assistance (BLT) for cooking oil compensation and business capital assistance to traders.
