Remarks of President of the Republic of Indonesia during Inspection at PT Aneka Gas Industri (Samator Group), 16 July 2021, Cakung, Jakarta

Ladies and Gentlemen, as we are all aware, the spike in COVID-19 cases continues unabated and has caused a sharp increase in national demand for medical oxygen for COVID-19 treatment, be it in hospitals or isolation centers.

For that reason, the Government will continue to strive to fulfill the national oxygen demand. We have collaborated with domestic industries to secure the supply and distribution of medical oxygen so that the national oxygen demand can be met.

And I highly appreciate the efforts made by PT Aneka Gas Industri, Samator Group for the hard work to meet the needs of medical oxygen by increasing its production capacity, so that it supports the national oxygen supply.

That concludes my remarks on this auspicious occasion.

I thank you.

Wassalamu’alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh. (RIF/MUR)
