        "summary": "The Governor of Central Kalimantan, Agustiar Sabran, has urged Pertamina to build an additional fuel terminal in the eastern zone of the province to ensure a stable and sustainable supply of fuel across its three zones. Currently, the western zone has two terminals in Sampit and Pangkalan Bun, the central zone has one in Pulang Pisau, but the eastern zone, covering districts like East Barito, South Barito, North Barito, and Murung Raya, lacks any. This initiative aims to address distribution gaps and prevent panic buying, with Pertamina's regional manager emphasising ongoing coordination and investment considerations for better coverage.",
        "content": "<p>Palangka Raya (ANTARA) - The Governor of Central Kalimantan\n(Kalteng), Agustiar Sabran, has requested Pertamina to add a fuel\nterminal or depot in the province to maintain the stability of the fuel\noil (BBM) supply on a sustainable basis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKalteng has three zones: west, central, and east. The west zone\nalready has two, namely in Sampit and Pangkalan Bun, the central zone\nhas one in Pulang Pisau, and the east zone has none,\u201d said the Central\nKalimantan Governor in Palangka Raya on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Pertamina\u2019s Fuel Terminal is a facility for receiving, storing, and\ndistributing fuel on a large scale, serving as the main transit point\nbefore distribution to public fuelling stations (SPBU) or other\noutlets.<\/p>\n<p>The Central Kalimantan Governor assessed that at least one additional\nfuel terminal is needed, particularly in the east zone covering East\nBarito, South Barito, North Barito, and Murung Raya. The aim is to\nensure that the flow and supply distribution of BBM is better maintained\nand stable on a sustainable basis.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of only one fuel terminal unit in the central region and\nnone in the east is considered not yet fully ideal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough a meeting with the Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Kalimantan\nteam, we have conveyed this proposal and hope it can be realised,\u201d he\nstated.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Agustiar also reminded the public not to engage in panic\nbuying of BBM, as the government\u2019s and Pertamina\u2019s efforts are currently\nrunning optimally, so it is hoped that long queues at SPBU will no\nlonger occur.<\/p>\n<p>The Executive General Manager of the Kalimantan Region at PT\nPertamina Patra Niaga, Isfahani, explained that in Central Kalimantan,\nthere are at least 75 regular SPBU, three depots or fuel terminals,\neight SPBE, and others.<\/p>\n<p>He said that his side continues to coordinate and synergise with\nlocal government and relevant stakeholders, including receiving various\ninputs or proposals so that, among other things, BBM distribution can be\ncarried out properly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPertamina measures the development of terminal facilities based on\nneeds and reach. Because in the economy, an investment also needs to be\naccountable in terms of returns. However, the most important thing is\ncertainly how to reach and ensure availability to all distributed\nareas,\u201d he clarified.<\/p>",
