President Prabowo Subianto has told the press that the Government is committed to ensuring that all Indonesian children receive nutritious food through the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program.
“The Central Government is determined to provide food for all Indonesian children by 2025,” the President said after attending the National Consolidation Meeting of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce (KADIN) on Thursday (1/16) at The Ritz Carlton hotel, Jakarta.
This Government program, which officially started at the beginning of this year, is expected to be a significant step in improving the health quality of Indonesia’s youth. Therefore, President Prabowo invited all parties to participate in its implementation actively.
“The regional governments also want to participate; the governors and the regents want to participate. We welcome anyone who wants to participate,” he said.
Good cooperation between all relevant parties is necessary to ensure that the program will run as intended. President Prabowo also underlined that the implementation of this program must be efficient and on target.
“It is important to be efficient; it is important to reach the right target with no leaks,” he remarked. (BPMI of Presidential Secretariat/ABD) (FI/MMB)
