Buleleng Police Chief AKBP Ruzi Gusman stated that the SPPG IV is still awaiting the disbursement of funds from the National Nutrition Agency (BGN) before it can operate at full capacity. However, he added that they will immediately begin a trial distribution of nutritious meals to approximately 1,300 beneficiaries.

“The number of beneficiaries is around 2,985 people, or almost 3,000. Because it is not yet fully operational, in the initial phase we will conduct a trial distribution for about 1,300 beneficiaries,” said Ruzi after the inauguration, as reported by detikBali on Saturday (16/5/2026).

The MBG (Nutritional Improvement) programme not only targets school children from elementary to high school level, but also vulnerable groups such as nursing mothers, the elderly, and other members of the community in need of nutritional support.

“The beneficiaries are not only school children, but also nursing mothers, the elderly, and other people in need. In Kubutambahan, it covers everyone,” he added.

He added that the MBG programme is not only focused on providing nutrition, but is also designed to stimulate the local economy. The provision of food ingredients involves traditional markets, village-owned enterprises (BUMDes), and local MSMEs.

“We are involving our MSMEs, and BUMDes is also participating. So it’s not just about providing nutritious food, but this programme is also expected to help stimulate the local economy,” he said.

The presence of the SPPG has created job opportunities for local residents who are employed in the SPPG kitchen.
