Based on government calculations, the average consumer spending of Pertalite and diesel is 2.5 million kiloliters and 1.5 million kiloliters per month, respectively.
Motorcycle and car riders queue to fill up fuel at the Manahan gas station, Solo, Central Java, on Wednesday (12/18/2019).
The Finance Ministry has stated that more than half of the subsidized diesel, Pertalite gasoline and LPG are enjoyed by wealthy citizens. The distribution of the subsidized fuel should, therefore, be more effective.
