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.
01:37From Batam City to Riau Island,
