Authorities in Bone Regency, Indonesia, have begun monitoring long queues and distribution loopholes regarding subsidized fuel. Task forces, including personnel from TNI-Polri and Satpol PP, have conducted inspections at stations such as Labombo to maintain order. Officials have noted concerns regarding individuals bypassing restrictions through multiple transaction barcodes and the potential diversion of fuel to retail sales.

Following these monitoring efforts, specific allegations of manipulation have emerged at the SPBU Palanga gas station. A driver reported that staff falsely claimed diesel stocks were exhausted, only to serve vehicles after a formal protest was lodged. Such tactics are suspected to be used to hide stock from the Satgas BBM Bersubsidi Merah Putih task force to facilitate unauthorized diversion.
