This new policy allows industries to import gas by themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Cabinet Secetary Mr Pramono Anung noted until now only three industries that have enjoyed a price below the government\u2019s reference price. They are fertilizers, petrochemicals, and steel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It gives free choices to industries to be able to import gas directly at the expectedly-lower prices,&#8221; said Mr Pramono.<\/p>\n<p>The government promised to be careful in issuing licenses to import gas. The government only allows import for industries that really require lower gas prices from abroad to keep production costs low. Imports should also carried out directly by the respective industries rather than through intermediaries.<\/p>\n<p>Some gas producers that have made include those from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Qatar.
