The research was conducted with a qualitative approachwhich aims to understand and interpret the subject and provide an overview of the symptoms that appear. With data collection techniques using interviews are open-ended questions and documentation studies. Based on this research, it was found that there are clear impacts arising from the increase in fuel oil (BBM), starting from the lack ofcommunity income, public transport fares, purchasing power, and so on. And the government is trying to overcome this problem by providing assistance to the community in the form of direct cash assistance (BLT), wage subsidies, transportation assistance, and additional social protection for online motorcycle taxis, public transportation, and fishermen.
