All parties being monitored (agents and bases) must also have valid business licenses.
"Today's monitoring results indicate that the 3-kg LPG gas stock is safe and the prices at the agent and distributor levels are consistent with the established retail price," she expressed, Tuesday (12/9).
She explained, gas agents, outlets, and retailers of 3-kg LPG have committed to continue operating during the Christmas and New Year holidays with guaranteed operating hours from 7 AM to 5 PM. This ensures that distribution to the community will not be disrupted.
"Distributors' commit to continue operating during the Christmas and New Year period is the key to ensuring the energy needs of Jakarta residents are met without issues," she explained.
She added that the Jakarta government will continue to conduct regular monitoring and take firm action against potential misappropriation, to ensure that energy subsidies are targeted effectively and that the stability of basic commodity prices is maintained.
"I appreciate the synergy between Pertamina, Hiswana Migas, and all distributors in Central Jakarta who have committed to maintaining the supply chain," she explained.
Here is the selling price within the specified limits:
1. Price at the Agent level: Rp 14,466 per cylinder (according to HET)
2. Price at the Pangkalan level: Rp 16,000 per cylinder (according to HET)
3. Price at the Retailer level: observed to be sold to consumers at Rp 20,000 per cylinder
