JAKARTA - Gorontalo Governor Rusli Habibie promised to oversee the distribution of cooking oil to the consumer level, considering that there is still a shortage until now.
"Of course we are serious about this problem. It must be monitored starting from the distributor level, to avoid shortages at the consumer level," he said in Gorontalo, quoted from Antara, Monday, February 21.
In the past month, the governor admitted that he had received many complaints and information from residents who had difficulty obtaining cooking oil.
"If there is a supply plan from the center, we will control it so that no person intentionally hoards," he added.
According to him, a joint team from the Gorontalo Regional Police, Commission II of the DPRD, and the Gorontalo Provincial Industry and Trade Service had carried out surprise inspections at a number of distributors.
"The result so far is that in Gorontalo there is no stockpiling, but because the supply from producers is limited," he added.
Head of the Industry and Trade Office of Gorontalo Province, Risjon Sunge, said as much as 317,070 liters of cooking oil is planned to arrive in Gorontalo on February 27, 2022.
He revealed that Gorontalo Province received 948,000 liters of cooking oil from the central government.
According to the Circular of the Minister of Trade No. 6 of 2022, the Highest Retail Price (HET) is Rp. 14,000 for premium packaging, Rp. 13,500 for simple packaging, and Rp. 11,500 in bulk.
"Especially for Pohuwato, 10,008 liters will arrive on February 23 from Bitung, supplied by Bulog," said Risjon.
