JAKARTA - Pertamina MOR VIII ensures that there is no accumulation of vehicles at gas stations spread across Maluku and Papua, following the increase in the price of Pertamax fuel, Friday April 1 yesterday.

Markus, a Honda CBR motor vehicle user, admitted that he was not surprised by the increase in Pertamax prices. Moreover, he has followed information about the plan to increase Pertamax planned by the government.

He admitted that he still uses Pertamax fuel for his vehicle, in order to ensure the maintenance of the condition of his motorcycle engine.

"Using Pertamax, it's more efficient and the engine condition doesn't break down quickly. I think this price increase is still affordable,” he said.

Meanwhile, Unit Manager Communication, Relations, & CSR for Papua Maluku Region – PT Pertamina Sub Holding Commercial & Trading, Edi Mangun explained that several days before the Pertamax price increase, the availability of fuel at all gas stations in Maluku and Papua continued to be increased.

However, on the night of March 31, 2022, there was an increase in Pertamax sales, following information on the increase in Pertamax prices as of April 1, 2022.

“Fuel stocks are stable, including Pertamax, Subsidized Solar, and Pertalite. Even customers who will fill their vehicles with Pertamax can be served well," explained Edi in a Pertamina press release, Saturday, April 2.

Pertamina MOR VIII ensures that the availability of BBM in Maluku Papua as a whole lasts up to 8 days.

"People don't need to worry about the Maluku Papua fuel stock in a very good condition, lasting up to the next 8 days. We also ensure that there is no shortage of supplies to gas stations," he explained.

With the new Pertamax price, Pertamina hopes that people will continue to choose higher quality Non-Subsidized Fuel.
