        "summary": "Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia stated that the rise in industrial gas prices in West Java, Banten, and Jakarta is due to declining local gas lifting, necessitating the use of LNG sourced from Maluku, Sulawesi, and Papua. He assured that there will be no export quota cuts in the second half of 2026. The price increase has sparked concern in the House of Representatives, with Deputy Speaker Sufmi Dasco Ahmad seeking a meeting with Pertamina's CEO to discuss potential layoffs affecting 55,000 workers in the ceramics industry.",
        "content": "<p>Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Bahlil Lahadalia\nexplained that the increase in industrial gas prices in West Java,\nBanten, and Jakarta is a consequence of declining local gas lifting,\nwhich has forced the region to rely on LNG supplies from Maluku,\nSulawesi, and Papua. He noted that industrial gas prices in East Java\nremain stable. Bahlil guaranteed that there will be no cuts to LNG\nexport quotas in the second half of 2026, following previous cuts in\n2025 to meet domestic needs. The price surge has prompted a response\nfrom the House of Representatives, with Deputy Speaker Sufmi Dasco Ahmad\npreparing to mediate after receiving reports that a major ceramics\nfactory in Bekasi could lay off over 50,000 workers. Dasco has scheduled\na meeting with the President Director of PT Pertamina to discuss\nsolutions for the affected companies.<\/p>",
