TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - State oil company Pertamina has prepared five locations for the sale of one price fuel in Maluku this year.
"We have prepared five locations in 2018 for the sale of one price fuel oil in Maluku Province, namely in Buru, Aru Islands, East Seram, Southwest Maluku, and West Southeast Maluku," Pertamina Communication and CSR Manager Eko Kristiawan remarked Friday, Sept. 21.
He said Pertamina was targeting the one-price fuel program in Maluku to be carried out in October 2018.
"According to our target, the operation of one-price fuel will be effective from October 2018, but it is possible to accelerate it so that all regions in eastern Indonesia, especially Papua and Maluku, will be covered this year," he said.
Eko explained that the one-price fuel program can help people enjoy the same fuel prices as those in other regions. He said this program can be enjoyed by residents throughout Indonesia, especially in the eastern Indonesia region which is the category of underdeveloped, frontier and outermost regions (3T).
"It is expected that the one-price fuel program would increase and develop the economic turnover of the people in the 3T area," he said.
Earlier in 2017, Pertamina also operated one price fuel oil location at Amalatu mini gas station in Latu Village, West Seram District.
