In addition, the implementation of the QR Code can also make the fuel subsidy program more targeted and save the state budget with accurate data. "So how can this be filtered later so that it is right on target," he added.
Angga said that his party together with Pertamina will be more active in conducting socialization regarding QR Codes for purchasing Pertalite fuel, starting in August 2024.
It is known that after being implemented in 41 cities/regencies since July 2023, Pertamina Patra Niaga has gradually expanded the Pertalite QR Code data collection area for 4-wheeled vehicles in various regions in Indonesia.
Meanwhile, the expansion of data collection phase 1 began in mid-July covering the Java, Madura, Bali (Jamali) region and several non-Jamali regions, namely Maluku, NTT, North Maluku, Gorontalo, East Kalimantan and North Kalimantan.
Meanwhile, Acting Corporate Secretary of Pertamina Patra Niaga Heppy Wulansari said that the step of recording Pertalite users was taken as an effort by the company to record assigned fuel transactions better and more transparently, considering the compensation budget provided by the Government for Pertalite products.
"The expansion of this area is carried out in stages starting in 190 cities/regencies in the Jamali region and some Non Jamali, then for other provinces or as many as 283 other cities/regencies will follow in the next stage. For four-wheeled vehicles that do not yet have a QR Code will still be served, and will be directed to register on the Subsidy Tepat website," explained Heppy in his statement quoted by brilio.net from liputan6.com, Thursday (8/8).
