        "summary": "President Prabowo Subianto has assured that Indonesia's fuel supply is secure for the next year, thanks to government measures to control consumption amid global uncertainties. He highlighted Indonesia's strategic maritime chokepoints, such as the Malacca, Sunda, and Makassar Straits, as vital to global oil dynamics, drawing parallels to the Strait of Hormuz affected by Middle East conflicts. This assurance underscores Indonesia's domestic strengths and the need for collective efforts to navigate the critical period ahead.",
        "content": "<p>JAKARTA - President Prabowo Subianto stated that Indonesia\u2019s supply\nof fuel oil (BBM) is guaranteed to be safe for the coming year. This is\nbecause his administration has implemented several policies to control\nBBM consumption. \u201cSome of these steps have already been announced, to\ncontrol fuel consumption for this short term. The short term that I\nconsider critical is this coming year,\u201d Prabowo said during his briefing\nto members of the Merah Putih Cabinet at the Palace in Jakarta on\nWednesday (8\/4\/2026), quoted from the Presidential Secretariat\u2019s YouTube\nbroadcast. \u201cAfter 12 months, we will be very strong. We will explain the\nsteps later, but the point is that now we are ready, we are strong to\nface this year,\u201d he added emphatically. This ensures that Indonesia has\nalternative sources of oil and gas to meet the needs of the population.\n\u201cBesides having very strong domestic capabilities. There is a period\nthat we must overcome together,\u201d Prabowo said. Regarding a strait with a\nwidth of around 33-95 kilometres, Prabowo stated that the Strait of\nHormuz determines global oil prices. \u201cNow, the war in the Middle East\nproves that one strait, the Strait of Hormuz, determines the life of\nmany nations, determines oil prices,\u201d Prabowo said. According to him,\nIndonesia, with its vast maritime territory, has equally important\npotential like the Strait of Hormuz. \u201cAre we aware that the Malacca\nStrait, Sunda Strait, Makassar Strait, and so on are Indonesian waters.\nAre we aware of how important Indonesia is, how key Indonesia is,\u201d\nPrabowo said.<\/p>",
