MBG Partners Hope New BGN Leadership Resolves Communication Hurdles in West Java

BANDUNG – Thousands of Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) partners in West Java had experienced stalled communication with the National Nutrition Agency (BGN). As a result, a number of problems that emerged at the kitchens ended without a solution.

Heri Ukasah, chairman of the West Java chapter of the Free Nutritious Meal Entrepreneurs Association (Gapembi), said the main issue that had hampered the MBG programme in the region was the stalled communication with BGN. However, under the leadership of Sudaryono, communication is now running smoothly.

“Aspirations from the regions essentially concern the stalled communication between partners and BGN. I am optimistic that under his leadership (Sudaryono), who in just the past two days has already begun receiving several associations,” he said at a consolidation meeting at the Horison Hotel in Bandung City on Sunday (26/7/2026).

He said the channels of communication with BGN have become intensive and open. In fact, a number of aspirations and hopes regarding the implementation of MBG have been conveyed to BGN.

Heri added that his side is committed to and fully supports the leadership of BGN head Sudaryono. It is hoped that his leadership can untangle the problems and implement the MBG programme.
