        "summary": "Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Jatimbalinus is updating consumer QR code and barcode data for subsidised fuel in East Java to address frequent technical errors reported by truck drivers, ensuring more effective distribution. This initiative responds to government policy on targeted subsidies for Biosolar and Pertalite, with the company monitoring for anomalies and providing 147 helpdesks for re-verification. As a result, 87 out of 119 vehicles have successfully re-registered, aiming to prevent misuse and maintain reliable energy supply.",
        "content": "<p>Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Jatimbalinus is striving to\ncontinuously update consumer QR code or barcode data for subsidised fuel\noil (BBM) in East Java to make its distribution more effective.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe maintain the reliability of energy supply, among other things, by\nevaluating and updating consumer data periodically to ensure that\nsubsidised BBM distribution is on target and easily accessible,\u201d said\nArea Manager for Communication, Relations &amp; CSR at Pertamina Patra\nNiaga Regional Jatimbalinus, Ahad Rahedi, in Surabaya on Thursday\n(30\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>This is done in response to aspirations from truck driver groups\nregarding the implementation of barcodes that often experience errors or\ntechnical issues when they are purchasing BBM, thus hindering goods\ndistribution.<\/p>\n<p>Ahad stated that updating data is a strategic step to ensure the use\nof QR codes and subsidised BBM quotas aligns with valid vehicle\nownership. The implementation of QR codes in the Targeted Subsidy\nprogramme is a government policy to ensure that subsidised BBM\ndistribution, both Biosolar and Pertalite, is on target and used by\nentitled parties.<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, Ahad said, Pertamina acts as the distributor in\naccordance with the government\u2019s assignment.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding QR codes that experience issues or cannot be used for\ntransactions, he assured that the system periodically monitors\nregistered vehicle data and QR code usage patterns at petrol\nstations.<\/p>\n<p>The system also detects transaction anomalies, such as large-volume\nrefuelling in close proximity or refuelling at multiple different petrol\nstations in a short time. Such conditions may indicate misuse of QR\ncodes by irresponsible parties, thus requiring a re-verification\nprocess.<\/p>\n<p>To serve the needs of truck drivers experiencing issues with QR codes\nduring transactions, Pertamina has opened 147 helpdesks across East Java\nto expedite the re-verification process and reactivate QR codes so they\ncan be used for purchasing subsidised BBM.<\/p>\n<p>For information, there are 119 vehicles that have re-registered for\nQR code activation, with about 73.1 per cent or 87 vehicles having\nsuccessfully completed the re-registration process, while 26.9 per cent\nor about 32 vehicles have not yet succeeded.<\/p>\n<p>Ahad explained that the challenges faced vary, including licence\nplate numbers not yet registered, deleted QR codes, and the need for\nvehicle data revisions. He urged the public whose data is not yet active\nto immediately re-register using accurate vehicle data.<\/p>\n<p>The registration process is designed to be simple so that the public\ncan still obtain subsidised BBM without issues, ensuring services can be\nenjoyed smoothly and safely.<\/p>",
