Cheap Market Program By Local Government In Indonesia
A boy is carried by his father as they jostle with thousands of residents queuing to purchase food packages worth Rp 50,000 in a ''cheap market'' program run by the local government at the Kedungkandang subdistrict office in Malang, Indonesia, on March 10, 2026. The low-cost market program helps the community meet their basic needs at affordable prices, stabilize commodity prices, control inflation at the regional level, and ease the economic burden on low-income communities, especially ahead of major religious holidays such as Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr.
