Summary

TLDRThe script discusses the ongoing shortage and high prices of packaged and bulk cooking oil in various regions, particularly in West Sulawesi's Polewali Mandar. Vendors complain about limited supplies from distributors, with some orders never arriving. Despite a drop in prices, the scarcity persists, and the issue is not widely covered on social media, where the oil is, however, being sold at higher prices than government-set limits. The Indonesian Consumer Protection Agency (LKM) urges the government to address the shortage and soaring prices, fearing it could lead to further problems. The script also mentions the lack of strong action by the KPU against potential cartel practices or unhealthy competition that could be violating antitrust laws.
