The plans to do so were gleaned from a closed-door parliamentary meeting with national oil and gas company Pertamina last week, according to Eddy Soeparno, a member of the National Mandate Party and deputy head of the parliament’s energy committee.
He said other options being considered for the price increase include setting RON 90 petrol, which is the most widely used fuel in the country, at 9,500 rupiah per litre, with the other fuels also set below Pertamina’s preferred price points. With the government having said that even more money would be needed for subsidies this year if fuel prices were not increased, some form of revision is expected. The report added that the country’s chief economic minister, Airlangga Hartarto, said he would present all policy options to president Joko Widodo.
