Transcript

00:00Ombudsman R. I. Y. K. Hendrafatika visited Bulog Rice Farm

00:06to monitor the state of rice production in Batam,

00:11Riau Island, on 25 June.

00:14Y. K. ensured that Bulog Batam has carried out Ombudsman's

00:19suggestions and actions for the agricultural sector,

00:22including the management of government rice reserves

00:26and efforts to stabilize and provide rice

00:29to meet the needs of the people of Batam.

00:33On the same occasion, the price monitoring of rice in the market

00:37was also emphasized.

00:39After the distribution of rice food assistance was carried out

00:42once every two months, starting in June 2024.

00:46Adjustment to food assistance is no longer every month.

00:50Do not try to speculate or use it,

00:56Why? Because Bulog, as you can see, has rice stocks.

01:02So the SPAP will be cut.

01:06So my hope is that even though the government does not provide food assistance,

01:10do not do all kinds of speculations

01:13that result in an increase in rice prices.

01:17Based on the data for the extreme poverty elimination acceleration target,

01:21the Ministry of Human Development and Culture

01:26currently records as many as 22 million beneficiaries

01:30across Indonesia who receive rice food assistance

01:34as much as 10 kilograms per month.
