President of the Republic of Indonesia (Joko Widodo)
This is the end of the year. We are checking the prices of goods on the market, because the conditions in each province are different. Yesterday, I inspected in Bali, the prices were different from those in other provinces. We are now checking the prices in Central Java province. I notice that the price of cooking oil has increased. It rather surprised me. An increase of Rp2,000.

Journalist
Is it still within the limit, sir?

President of the Republic of Indonesia (Joko Widodo)
Also, the price of tempeh has also increased. Indeed, the price of the soybean has now reached Rp15,000.  Those are our findings regarding the prices on the ground and later we will find the solution. (FI/MMB)
