Dudung Abdurachman\nsaid improvements are ongoing in the Free Nutritious Meals Programme\n(MBG), with the Office of the Presidential Staff (KSP) taking part in\nstrict oversight, including ensuring that no one sells kitchen\npoints.<\/p>\n<p>Dudung explained that he had met today with the Head of the National\nNutrition Agency (BGN), Dadan Hindayana, to report on the latest\nsituation and the implementation mechanism of the MBG programme.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I informed him that the KSP will tightly guard and oversee the\nprogramme in line with His Excellency the President\u2019s directives. So\nthat there are no individuals who sell or manipulate the points for\nprofit,\u2019 Dudung said at a press conference in Jakarta on Tuesday, 19 May\n2026.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that oversight is necessary so the MBG implementation runs\naccording to the President\u2019s directives and is not exploited by certain\nparties. He reminded that no one should use this programme for personal\ngain.<\/p>\n<p>In response, the BGN also asked for assistance in overseeing MBG\ngiven that the Satuan Pelayanan Pemenuhan Gizi (SPPG) are spread across\nIndonesia.<\/p>\n<p>Dudung said that before meeting with BGN, he had been summoned by\nVice President (Wapres) Gibran Rakabuming to discuss improvements to MBG\nimplementation.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Thus nutrition experts have been brought in, experts who truly\nmaster the kitchen issues. So for future improvements, the BGN issues.\nHopefully this will improve further as this is a presidential priority\nprogramme that we must support,\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n<p>He specifically reminded that MBG plays an important role in\nincreasing the nutrition intake of Indonesian children. MBG is not just\nabout providing meals, but part of the nation\u2019s human resources\ninvestment.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018This is a Presidential priority programme that we must support. This\nprogramme is very beneficial for our children. Therefore its\nimplementation must be continuously improved, supervised, and targeted,\u2019\nhe said. (Ant)<\/p>",
