JAKARTA - Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, responded to the appointment of Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment (Menko Marves) Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan by President Joko Widodo to handle the cooking oil problem.

According to Dasco, Luhut's new assignment is not a serious problem. Because President Jokowi has the authority to appoint any assistants in the cabinet to take care of these problems. Moreover, he said, the cooking oil problem must be resolved immediately

"Anyone assigned by the president, I think, should be able to solve the migraine problem. Regardless of who it is," said Dasco at the DPR building, Jakarta, Wednesday, May 25.

If the President has assigned, continued the Daily Chair of the Gerindra Party DPP, then the public, including the DPR, is only tasked with collecting the results of their work to stabilize prices and the availability of cooking oil.

"Let's just wait for the results. We ask the relevant commission to monitor the resolution of the migraine problem," concluded Dasco.

Previously reported, President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) again gave a special task to the Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment, Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan. This time, Luhut was asked to take care of the cooking oil problem because the price was still high and the stock was scarce in the market.

"Suddenly the President (Jokowi) ordered me to take care of cooking oil. So since three days ago, I started dealing with the problem of the scarcity of cooking oil," said Luhut when opening the virtual GAMKI 60th Anniversary Peak Celebration, which was broadcast via YouTube. Gamki Balikpapan, Saturday, May 21.

Luhut hopes that the cooking oil issue will be resolved as soon as it is handled. "We hope that it won't be too long before we finish it," he said.
