        "content": "<p>The newly appointed Head of the National Nutrition Agency (BGN),\nSudaryono, has permitted the public and media to continue highlighting\nand discussing the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) programme, even\nencouraging it to go viral. However, he reminded everyone to ensure that\ncirculating information is based on facts and does not contain hoaxes,\nslander, or intentional misinterpretation.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the BGN headquarters in Jakarta on Wednesday, Sudaryono\nacknowledged that the MBG is a major public programme, making it natural\nfor it to be widely discussed in the national media and on social media.\nHe urged for support and asked that any reporting or posts be truthful.\n\"I understand that people can easily create sensations around the MBG\ntheme, and it can go viral, maybe making them proud. But please, no\nmatter how viral it gets, I want the information reported or posted to\nbe the truth,\" he said.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that the agency is open to criticism and feedback, but he\nhopes that news and social media posts do not contain false information.\n\"We are working together. I ask everyone, especially the media, to act\nwisely and correctly. I am not saying I don\u2019t want to see anything\nnegative, but please, do not report or post news that is untrue,\" he\nstressed.<\/p>\n<p>Sudaryono also addressed calls to stop or disband the MBG programme,\nstating that such demands do not constitute constructive criticism. He\nemphasised that the MBG is a political promise of President Prabowo\nSubianto, planned long before and delivered during the campaign, and is\nnow being implemented by the government. The agency\u2019s focus is on\nimproving governance, ensuring the programme provides good and safe\nnutrition for children, pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and the\nelderly, while also having a positive impact on the economy, especially\nin villages.<\/p>\n<p>He also warned the public not to trust individuals claiming to have\nclose connections with him to secure special treatment or financial\ngain. He urged anyone encountering such fraudulent behaviour to report\nit directly to the authorities, stating he would not protect anyone\ninvolved in such actions.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding his leadership, Sudaryono revealed that President Prabowo\nSubianto gave him a special directive to ensure the programme runs\neffectively, efficiently, and resolves issues quickly. \"The President\u2019s\ndirection is to run into the problem. We must be willing to run and\nsolve the issues,\" he said, adding that the approach should be carried\nout by loving the people and using common sense.<\/p>",
