Fuel Oil Distribution in Regional Level in Indonesia

. One of the priority agenda of Nawa Cita Joko Widodo-Jusuf Kalla is the distribution of development and economics in all regions of Indonesia. An implementation of it would be the improvement of public facilities in remote areas. It causes fuel oil (BBM) needs to continue to increase. As a consequence, the country needs an equitable distribution of fuel; however, there is often an inequality of oil fuel distribution, as what occurred in Bunga Mayang district of North Lampung. The local community should travel approximately 40 km to reach the nearest gas station; Negararatu, and often the gas station has run out of fuel oil. Some people who carried oil transportation from the gas station to Bunga Mayang were arrested and sentenced to 8 (eight) months in prison per the ruling of the city-state court No: 66/Pid. Sus/2017/PN. Kbu although they have made it easy for people to get fuel oil. This research examines that Law No. 22 of 2001 on oil and Gas has not been made clear about the granting of permits to business activities in remote areas. The requirements to obtain existing permits are quite challenging to reach by communities with the lower middle class. Other laws and regulations are also deemed to have not matched the situation in the remote areas so that 3 (three) fundamental values of the law, namely justice, legal certainty, and benefit for the community are yet to be achieved.
