        "summary": "A viral image claiming to show an 'ATM MBG' card for directly disbursing Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) programme funds to students has been debunked. Analysis indicates the image is 99.6% likely to be AI-generated or a deepfake. The government is currently focused on improving the programme's service units and updating beneficiary data, with no official policy to distribute funds via individual ATM cards.",
        "content": "<p>A Facebook post featuring an image of a card labelled \u2018ATM MBG Anak\nIndonesia\u2019 (ATM for Free Nutritious Meals for Indonesian Children),\nresembling a standard ATM card, has been circulating online. The post\nquestioned whether the government would transfer Free Nutritious Meal\n(MBG) funds directly to each child through such a card.<\/p>\n<p>However, a fact-check by ANTARA using the AI Detector Hive Moderation\ntool indicates that 99.6 per cent of the image is likely AI-generated or\na deepfake. There has been no official statement from the National\nNutrition Agency (BGN) or the Ministry of Finance regarding the direct\ndisbursement of MBG funds to individual children via ATM cards.<\/p>\n<p>According to ANTARA reports, the government, through the Coordinating\nMinistry for Food, is currently focusing on the operational readiness\nand sustainability of over 13,000 Nutritional Fulfilment Service Units\n(SPPG) nationwide. The priority is on improving service points,\nparticularly in regions with high stunting rates such as the Papua\nHighlands and East Nusa Tenggara, and updating data for the programme\u2019s\n63 million targeted beneficiaries.<\/p>",
