Perum Bulog\nWest Java Regional Leader Nurman Susilo in Bandung on Thursday\nemphasised that in addition to strengthening the distribution of\nmedium-quality rice under the Food Supply and Price Stabilisation\nProgramme (SPHP), the penetration of premium rice into modern retail is\nbeing massively accelerated. \u201cBulog not only provides medium-quality\nSPHP rice, but also premium rice which is already available in various\nmodern retail networks so that it is more easily accessible to the\npublic,\u201d said Nurman Susilo in his statement. The public can now obtain\nthese food commodities through various modern retail networks in West\nJava, such as Griya, Yogya, Borma, Transmart, Indomarco, Indogrosir and\nSuperindo. The products being rolled out include the Punokawan Rice and\nBefood Rice brands in 5-kilogram packages priced at Rp74,500 per\npackage, or Rp14,900 per kilogram in accordance with government HET\nprovisions. Nurman explained that the availability of a 3,000-tonne\nreserve equivalent of premium rice in Bulog West Java\u2019s warehouses is\nmore than sufficient to meet the consumption needs of households and\nbusiness operators without any need for scarcity concerns. Therefore, he\nurged the public to remain calm and buy rice according to their daily\nneeds without panic buying. \u201cThe public does not need to make excessive\npurchases. Bulog ensures that the distribution of SPHP rice and premium\nrice will continue to be strengthened so that the needs of households,\nbusiness operators, and modern retail in West Java remain fulfilled and\nfood stability is maintained,\u201d said Nurman.<\/p>",
