"Dream - National Food Body (Bapanas) officially raises the Maximum Retail Price (HET) for medium and premium rice. This increase is stated in the Regulation of the National Food Body (Perbadan) in order to maintain reasonable prices at the consumer level."

Arief expressed that the establishment of this rice HET regulation strengthens the relaxation policy that has been implemented through the previous decision of the Head of Bapanas.

Arief emphasizes that the adjustment of rice's HET (maximum retail price) is inseparable from efforts to stabilize the supply and price of rice, where policies upstream are also aligned with downstream.

Arief mentioned in the Perbadan, the government-set price for rice in the regions of Java, Lampung, and South Sumatra. The government-set price for medium-grade rice is Rp12,500 per kilogram (kg), and the government-set price for premium-grade rice is Rp14,900 per kg.
