JAKARTA - The National Police's Food Task Force formed a team to ensure price stability and the availability of basic commodities remain safe ahead of the holy month of Ramadan.

It is undeniable that before the holy month of Ramadan, the prices of basic commodities often jumped dramatically.

"The central food task force has formed a team to carry out activities to check the prices of basic commodities, especially rice and cooking oil commodities which are of public concern," said Karo Penmas, Police Public Relations Division, Brigadier General Ahmad Ramadhan, to reporters, Tuesday, March 14.

Some of the staples that are also the focus of supervision include corn, soybeans, chilies, poultry meat, poultry eggs, meat, sugar, and fish.

Later, the National Police's Food Task Force will inspect the markets. However, Koprs Bhayangkara will not move alone.

This is because other relevant ministries and agencies will be involved in surveillance

"The National Police's food task force together with related ministries and institutions jointly conduct checks in the field to monitor the price condition of basic commodities and evaluate problems and anticipate the scarcity of basic commodities at the producer and consumer levels," he said.
