        "summary": "The Palm Oil Agribusiness Strategic Policy Institute (Paspi) states that the government's Domestic Market Obligation (DMO) policy is increasingly effective in ensuring the supply of palm cooking oil (MGS) meets the highest retail price (HET), as evidenced by the price of MinyaKita MGS dropping from Rp16,865 to Rp15,949 per litre between January and the third week of April 2026, nearing the HET of Rp15,700. In contrast, premium MGS prices rose to Rp21,793 per litre and bulk MGS to Rp19,486 per litre during the same period, driven by global energy price surges from Middle East conflicts. This highlights the government's success in controlling prices for low-income segments and SMEs through DMO, distribution controls, and HET, while market forces influence premium and bulk segments.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Executive Director of the Palm Oil Agribusiness\nStrategic Policy Institute (Paspi) Tungkot Sipayung stated that the\ngovernment\u2019s domestic market obligation (DMO) policy is becoming\nincreasingly effective in maintaining the supply of palm cooking oil\n(MGS) to meet the highest retail price (HET). \u201cThe decline in the price\nof MinyaKita MGS is proof that the government\u2019s DMO policy is\nincreasingly effective in maintaining the MGS supply to meet the HET,\u201d\nsaid Tungkot Sipayung in his statement in Jakarta on Friday. The decline\nin the market price of MinyaKita MGS was evident during the period from\nJanuary 2026 to the third week of April 2026, dropping from Rp16,865 to\nRp15,949 per litre, approaching the HET of Rp15,700 per litre.\nMeanwhile, during the same period, the price of premium MGS rose from\nRp21,166 per litre to Rp21,793 per litre. The price of bulk MGS also\nincreased from Rp17,790 per litre to Rp19,486 per litre. Tungkot\nexplained that there are three types of palm cooking oil (MGS) consumed\nby the domestic population, namely premium packaged MGS with various\nbrands, MinyaKita MGS for low-income communities and SMEs, and bulk MGS\nfor the food industry. Of these three types of palm cooking oil, the\ngovernment can control the price and availability of MinyaKita MGS. In\ncontrast, the prices and availability of premium and bulk MGS are\ncontrolled by the market. \u201cThe price and availability of MinyaKita MGS\nare controlled by the government through the DMO (domestic market\nobligation) policy, distribution controls (D1, D2), and HET (highest\nretail price),\u201d he said. He elaborated that the rise in domestic cooking\noil prices occurred in the premium MGS and bulk MGS segments, while the\nprice of MinyaKita MGS actually fell, approaching the HET. According to\nhim, the increase in domestic cooking oil prices stemmed from the\nconflict in the Middle East between the United States and Israel with\nIran, which triggered a nearly twofold surge in global fossil energy\nprices.<\/p>",
