The Head of the National Nutrition Agency (BGN), Trenggono, has\nrequested that partners of the Nutrition Fulfilment Service Units (SPPG)\ngive the agency time to restructure the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG)\nprogramme. Trenggono explained that the agency needs time to reorganise\nand re-evaluate the programme, which is currently under a\nmoratorium.<\/p>\n
He initially stated that the BGN fully understands the various\ncomplaints submitted by SPPG partners following the programme\u2019s\nsuspension. However, he stressed that the temporary halt is not\npermanent. \u201cYesterday, partners came here to express their concerns and\nso on. There were also questions from Commission IX. To be clear, we are\nanswering that this moratorium is not forever, it is only temporary,\u201d\nTrenggono said after a meeting at the Parliament Complex, Senayan,\nJakarta, on Friday.<\/p>\n
He appealed to the partners to allow the agency the necessary time to\nfocus on reorganising the roughly 27,000 SPPG units that have been\nestablished across various regions. \u201cPlease give us time to reorganise.\nWe will recheck and restructure these 27,000-plus units. This also\nincludes SPPGs in the 3T regions (Frontier, Outermost, and Disadvantaged\nareas), we will give time for all of them. Please give us the time to\nset everything in order,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, Trenggono emphasised that the BGN is not refusing to\nopen lines of communication with the SPPG partners. He promised to\nschedule a specific time for a proper dialogue soon. \u201cSo once again, I\nhope the partners understand, it is not that we do not want to\ncommunicate, not at all. We will also provide the opportunity, but we\nwill find the right time so we can have a good dialogue,\u201d he\nconcluded.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/bgn-asks-sppg-partners-for-time-to-restructure-free-nutritious-meal-programme-1784296418", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
