MAGELANG - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) and First Lady Iriana directly checked the price of bulk cooking oil at Muntilan Market, Magelang, Central Java, Saturday, May 21.
"How much is this, ma'am?" Jokowi asked a basic food seller who is also a kiosk owner at Muntilan Market, Titin Suryani, Saturday, May 21.
"For 1 liter Rp. 14,500, 1 kilo (kilogram) Rp. 15,000," replied Titin.
At the market, Jokowi and Iriana also took the time to shop for spices and vegetables, such as red chilies, onions, carrots, bitter melon, and turmeric. Jokowi also bought crackers and baskets made of woven bamboo.
According to an Antara report, launched by the Presidential Secretariat BPMI, a smile appeared on the face of Almisih, a seller of woven bamboo baskets at Muntilan Market, Magelang. He is happy that Jokowi has bought his merchandise.
"I was given Rp. 100,000, even though the price (the basket) was Rp. 15,000," said Almisih.
Jokowi also asked the price of vegetables at Muntilan Market. When the merchant stated the price, the President offered the price of the vegetables jokingly.
"'The price is Rp. 10,000, Rp. 7,000, eh?' The president said that, but we knew (the president) was just joking, then we were given money," said a vegetable trader named Pur.
After walking around the market and greeting the sellers and visitors of Muntilan Market, Jokowi and Iriana distributed aid directly to the beneficiaries.
Also accompanying the President and Iriana on the visit were Social Minister Tri Rismaharini and Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo.
