In an effort to combat food insecurity and stabilize the supply in occupied areas, the Badan Pangan Nasional/National Food Agency (NFA) has sent a delegation to Provinsi Aceh via Pelabuhan Patimban.

Ten containers with a combined weight of 200 tons per container made up the first shipment.

NFA's head of communications, Arief Prasetyo Adi, announced that the provinces of Malahayati and Lhoksumawe in Aceh will receive the first shipment of about 200 tons of beras.

"Today, we've been working all day to provide some pokok and important beras." At the following meeting, approximately 40 further containers will be delivered. The current pangan-related activities will continue to be carried out regularly in order to promote pangan stability throughout all of Indonesia, especially in the arid and semi-arid regions, said Arief in a speech on Saturday, October 18, 2022.

Arief explained that the beras that was reported to be there is actually a piece of the Cadangan Beras Pemerintah (CBP) Bulog that was damaged.
