To reduce the reliance on Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), the Indonesian government implemented a program that offer free energy-efficient electric cookers last year.
The initial target was to distribute 500,000 sets of rice cookers. However, according to the data from the executing unit, only 340,000 sets were distributed. The initiative’s effectiveness has fallen short of expectations because of qualification verification process, contributing to an annual budget achievement rate of less than 90%.
