When the State Budget was approved by the House of Representatives in October last year, the quota for subsidized fuel was set at 48 million kiloliters. At that time, the Government stressed that subsidized fuel consumption must be minimized and that the quota would not be increased.
This stance was affirmed by Jero Wacik, the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), who said that there will be no addition to the quota this year. Instead, the Government will revise the subsidized fuel quota in accordance with consumption levels.
“If the consumption of one type of subsidized fuel is increased, then the quota for another type of subsidized fuel should be decreased,” said Mr. Wacik on Monday.
According to Mr. Wacik, such an adjustment could be done, for example, by increasing the quota for premium fuel (subsidized petrol fuel) and deducting that increase from the quota for solar (subsidized diesel fuel). He claims that this approached saved the 2013 State Budget from going over the quota for subsidized fuel.
“Each year, we have different patterns for subsidized fuel consumption. We will implement a similar pattern as last year. However, this time we will increase the quota for solar by taking some of the quota for premium fuel due to the high level of solar consumption compared to premium,” said Mr. Wacik.
The plan to increase the solar quota, according to Mr. Wacik, will not overburden the State Budget. This is due to a regulation which stated that the entire solar quota must be blended with 10 percent biodiesel.
“Should the blending be executed, we will save 10 percent of the quota,” he said.
Revision on Subsidized Fuel Distribution
Edy Hermantoro, Director General of Oil and Gas at the ESDM, said that to anticipate over demand on subsidized fuel quota, the Government will revise the Minister of ESDM Regulation No. 1 of 2013on Fuel Usage Control.
“We only need the signature of the Minister of ESDM as a final touch,” said Mr. Hermantoro.
The revision itself will incorporate provisions on non-cash system, for the distribution of subsidized fuel. Such system, as Mr. Hermantoro said, will allowed every form of non-cash payment as the only way to purchase subsidized fuel in every fuel stations. Hence, fuel transaction will be recorded automatically.
“The Government is ready to execute this plan. We will have a trial first in Bali and Batam,” he said.
On the other hand, Darmaningtyas, Head of Advocacy at Indonesian Transportation Society (MIT), suggested that subsidized fuel should be revoked and fuel price should be made according with the market price. He considered this action is effective to bring the awareness of saving fuel due to limited supply of fuel.
“Instead of burning trillion of rupiahs on vehicle fuel, we should build infrastructure or develop free education and heath services,” he concluded.
