DENPASAR — Perum BULOG has confirmed that national rice stocks remain at a highly secure level ahead of major religious holidays and the year-end period. As of late November, the Government Rice Reserve (CBP) managed by BULOG stands at around 3.8 million tons, ensuring stable supply and prices across the country.
In line with the national condition, the BULOG Regional Office (Kanwil) for Bali also assured the public that rice availability in the province is fully secure ahead of Kuningan, Christmas 2025, and New Year 2026 celebrations.
The Head of BULOG Bali Regional Office, Muhamad Anwar, emphasized that current stock levels are more than adequate to meet public demand.
“The rice stock under BULOG Bali currently stands at 10,433 tons. This amount is sufficient to supply the needs of Bali residents ahead of Kuningan and the 2025 year-end holidays. There is no need for the public to worry,” said Anwar (27/11/2025).
Anwar noted that this clarification is important as rice demand typically increases ahead of religious holidays and the turn of the year. To maintain price stability, BULOG Bali continues distributing Stabilized Food Supply and Price (SPHP) Rice in collaboration with the National Police, the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), and local authorities.
As of November, BULOG Bali has distributed 8,160 tons of SPHP rice across traditional markets, Rumah Pangan Kita (RPK) outlets, modern retailers, Koperasi Desa Merah Putih (KDMP), and other available sales channels.
“We will continue distributing SPHP rice to all markets and sales points to ensure stable supply from the Kuningan celebration through the end of the year,” he added.
BULOG Bali has also coordinated with local governments, the Food Task Force, the Police, the TNI, and relevant stakeholders to ensure the community can observe religious ceremonies and year-end celebrations safely and comfortably.
With strong stock availability and ongoing distribution efforts, BULOG reiterates its commitment to maintaining food stability in Bali throughout the 2025 year-end period.***
