Pertamina said Monday that beginning Thursday, the price of Pertamax will be lowered to between Rp 6,438 and Rp 6,938 a liter.
Meanwhile the price of Bio Pertamax will be lowered to between Rp 6,338 and Rp 6,538 a litter. In Jakarta, Banten and West Java (region III), Pertamax and Bio Pertamax will be both sold at Rp 6,388 a liter.
