        "summary": "The National Nutrition Agency (BGN) has procured shoe polish and brushes worth approximately Rp1.58 billion as part of the training facilities for the 2025 Sarjana Penggerak Pembangunan Indonesia (SPPI) programme, which supports the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) initiative. These items, intended for 30,299 participants, were acquired through a self-managed scheme involving the National Defence University, with contracts awarded to various companies at prices significantly higher than market rates.
