Pertamina Patra Niaga Regional Jawa Bagian Barat (JBB) has assured that the supply of 3 kg LPG to the Cianjur region will continue to be distributed despite the public holiday calendar.

Area Manager for Communication, Relations & CSR at Pertamina Regional JBB, Susanto August Satria, stated on Friday (19/3) that in the past week leading up to Idul Fitri, an additional supply of 78,400 cylinders was delivered to the Cianjur area on 19 March 2026.

“Additionally, another supply of 78,400 cylinders will be added on 21 March 2026. This total addition of 156,800 cylinders serves to bolster community stocks ahead of the Idul Fitri 1447 Hijriyah celebrations,” he explained.

According to Susanto, Pertamina, in collaboration with relevant agencies, continues to synergise to ensure that the distribution of subsidised energy is targeted appropriately. Therefore, the public does not need to engage in panic buying. The public is advised to purchase from official bases where the selling price complies with the HET set by the local government.

“If there are bases selling 3 kg LPG above the HET, please report it to the Pertamina Call Center at 135,” he clarified.

Susanto urged the public to be wise and economical in using 3 kg LPG and not to be excessive, especially in stockpiling, as it constitutes a criminal act.
