The price of one sack of rice of 25 kgs is now Rp. 150.000,-. It was less than a hundred rupiah then. We can see that it is 50% more expensive. Crazy right? Everybody consumes rice, the poor even consume more because they can’t afford to buy meat or vegetables and what happened? The price of rice is soaring high.
The government is trying to import rice to control the soaring price but the parliament is against the policy by saying that the government must protect farmers. Doesn’t the parliament know that the rice is already with the distributors, not with the farmers? Even the farmers have to buy rice now, with new price.
I think we should import rice to stabilize the price first.
