Papua Police and Disperindakop ensure the availability of cooking oil

The Directorate of Special Criminal Investigation (Dirkrimsus) of the Papua Police together with the Papuan Industry, Trade, Cooperatives and MSMEs (Disperindagkop) conducted monitoring to check the availability of cooking oil at distributors in the Jayapura area, Tuesday (15/3).
 
Dirkrimsus Polda Papua Kombes Rico Taruna who directly led the activity told Antara, Tuesday in Jayapura, admitting that from monitoring carried out at three of the six distributors of cooking oil, it was revealed that supplies were still there.

"Indeed, the number is not much because the distributor quota is also reduced compared to last 2021, but overall it is still sufficient for the next week," he said.

Although there has been a reduction in shipments, until now cooking oil is still available in shops, especially around Jayapura City at a price of Rp. 14,000/liter.

"From the report received, it was revealed that the price of cooking oil in Papua is the highest in the central mountainous region, reaching Rp. 35,000/liter," said Kombes Rico.

One of Andre's cooking oil distributors admitted that the supply of cooking oil he received was significantly lower than usual.

Currently, the supply of cooking oil is around 58 thousand liters and every week we get one container which is usually more than 10 containers a month, Andre admitted.

Several residents of Jayapura City admitted that they had difficulty getting certain brands of cooking oil, such as the special Bimoli type and Filma.

"On average, the cooking oil sold is brand new that we have never used," admitted Martha, who was met shopping at one of the shops in Jayapura City.
