Increasing of fuel price affect Jakarta

Nowadays, people in Indonesia are worried because fuel price is increasing, automatically the price of people's daily needs are increasing too. There is no other way,instead of increasing fuel price, to cover the production of petrol. We all know that Indonesia is a rich country with a lot of natural resources, but we can not maximize our natural resources because we do not have a good human resources here. So we can not avoid that fuel price in Indonesia will increase rapidly, as the impact of this, there are some riots in Jakarta, capital city of Indonesia. And the riots increase the traffic jam in Jakarta. When government increase the fuel price again, I am sure that there will be a chaos in Jakarta.

Well Leo-
Are you certain that, "There is no other way,instead of increasing fuel price, to cover the production of petrol."?
Governments and large corporations are changing the prices for many reasons. What do governments want? What to corporations want?

Indonesian government have been thinking how to cut the price of oil production and the price to import the oil from other country.
They already allocated some amount of money to prevent the increasing fuel price.
Right now, Saudi Arabia has increase their oil production, but fuel price is increasing rapidly.
So I think that if the government do not increase the fuel price, they will suffer because of the world fuel price which has been increasing nowadays.
