Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Jero Wacik said on Tuesday that the government, which has planned to draw up a policy this year to limit petrol use, is considering a price within the reach of the people.
"The option of reducing subsidy by increasing price will take into account people's purchasing power," the minister said.
However, he added, the fuel-to-gas conversion option would remain to be applied until the next several years.
Besides, the government will increase the number of infrastructure facilities at refueling stations to provide enough high-octane pertamax stocks, he said.(IGT)
