inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. Minister of Immigration and Corrections (Imipas) Agus Andrianto said that food ingredients in the canteen of the state prison (rutan) must be managed by local entrepreneurs in the area of ​​the prison.

“For food ingredients, I really want that next year the food will be managed by those around the prison area,” says Agus on Tuesday (2/25/2025).

Agus explains that the food ingredients for prisons in North Sumatra, Jambi and Kalimantan are mostly distributed from Jakarta, whereas he saw that there are many local entrepreneurs that can cover those sectors.

On the other hand, this issue also caused the food price in the canteen to rise.

In applying these new regulations, Agus instructed the Director General of Corrections Mashudi to check the canteen service, especially in prisons.

He wants to ensure that the canteen service in prisons is of good quality and affordable.
