Responding to questions related to deflation that occurred as a sign of weakening purchasing power of the community, the number one person in the ranks of the Malang City Government ensured that it was still under control. "Malang City's deflation is still measurable, still in a safe and controlled corridor," explained Wahyu.
To ensure this, various steps taken by the Malang City Government together with the Malang City TPID to control inflation include collaborating with related parties and inter-regional cooperation (KAD). In addition, monitoring of commodity stability and prices and inflation control programs are also carried out. "The success of Malang City in controlling inflation has also received appreciation, thank God," he said.
Regarding KAD, he said that the Cooperation Agreement (PKS) has been carried out with Probolinggo Regency for shallots, and Lumajang for chilies. "KAD is carried out because chilies and shallots often contribute to inflation," concluded Wahyu. (cah/yon)
