Headline:
Citizens Share Images of MBG Meals, Sparking Conversations About Nutritious Food vs. Tasty Food

Article:

In the second day of the Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program, various netizens took to social media to share images of the meals distributed, sparking discussions about nutritious food and tasty food.

One netizen, @baizhoi, shared a meal consisting of rice, scrambled eggs, tempeh oreg, and orange slices. While the composition appeared balanced, some users wondered about the lack of certain vegetables or proteins.

Another user, @barengwarga, posted a meal on behalf of their niece who is a high school student. The meal included rice, watermelon slices, milk, undercooked green beans, and what they described as lackluster chicken.

@Lilyanazeleaa shared a photo as well, highlighting the small portion of vegetables in their meal, commenting on the lack of greens.

On the other hand, @ardibhironx used the opportunity to educate about the differences between nutritious food and tasty food. They shared a photo of a meal that was nutritious but not necessarily exciting in terms of flavor.

These posts have started a conversation about the importance of nutritious meals in the MBG program and how taste can be incorporated without compromising nutritional value.

Nourishing on a Budget: Free, Balanced Menu Without Dairy

by Chief Editor January 7, 2025
written by Chief Editor

Headline: School Meals: The Debate Over Missing Milk on the First Day

Subhead: Despite initial omissions, priorities are shifting to ensure sustainable distribution.


JAKARTA – The newly launched school meals program, a flagship initiative of President Prabowo Subianto‘s administration, commenced on January 6, 2025. This program has been highly anticipated, with the primary concept being to provide balanced and nutritious meals to students nationwide.

On the program’s first day, 190 Satellite Units for Nutritional Services (SPPG) were operational across 26 provinces. Each SPPG is headed by an official from the National Nutrition Board. Despite the widespread enthusiasm and positive reception, one notable absence has sparked discussion: the lack of milk in some schools’ meals.

Residents of SD Negeri Kedung Badak 1 in Bogor, West Java, were surprised to find that their children’s free school meals did not include milk. The menu consisted of rice, omelette, carrots and cabbage, and bananas. The absence of milk was also noticed in Depok, where Coordinating Minister for Human Development and Culture, Muhaimin Iskandar, acknowledged the issue and stated that provisions would be made available gradually.

The Istana confirmed that milk is not included in every meal, with executive officer Hasan Nasbi noting that milk may be served one to two times a week. The decision to incorporate milk into the meals depends on its availability. However, with a budget of Rp10,000 per meal, officials affirm that this allocation includes milk when available.

To ensure sustainability and support local industries, the National Nutrition Board has prioritized milk distribution in regions with dairy farming. The board, headed by Dadan Hindayana, aims to reduce milk imports by promoting local production. In areas without dairy farms, other protein sources like fish and eggs can be substituted, along with alternative calcium sources.

In Jakarta, the governor’s office has stated that milk will be provided twice a week, with other meal variations to follow. To maintain diversity and quality,kusus menus will cater to regional preferences and food availability. Despite initial hurdles, the school meals program remains committed to ensuring adequate nutrition and culinary variety for Indonesian students.

The Fate of Prabowo’s PPN Batal Naik Program After Rp75T HANGUS Imbas

by Chief Editor January 7, 2025
written by Chief Editor

Headline: Indonesia Shelves PPN Hike, Losing Out on Rp75 Trillion in Revenue

Subhead: Government scraps planned 12% VAT increase, impacting APBN 2025 and presidential programs

Article:

In a policy U-turn, the Indonesian government has abandoned plans to raise the value-added tax (VAT) or pajak pertambahan nilai (PPN) from 11% to 12% as of January 1, 2025. This decision, announced by Wakil Ketua DPR RI Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, has significant fiscal implications, with the government set to miss out on potential revenue of Rp75 trillion.

Theatetration of a 12% PPN would have only applied to barang mewah (luxury goods), a departure from the original plan to implement it across all goods and services. According to Dasco, the new policy change means that instead of the projected Rp75 trillion, the government will only gain an additional Rp3.2 trillion in additional APBN funds for 2025.

Menteri Keuangan Sri Mulyani Indrawati played down the impact of the lost revenue, saying that the APBN management for 2025 is still dynamic and will be updated monthly. Dirjen Pajak Suryo Utomo acknowledged the loss but asserted that they would explore other avenues to boost tax revenue.

The decision to scrap the PPN hike could pose challenges for President Prabowo Subianto‘s administration, which has ambitious spending plans, including the Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program, budgeted at Rp71 trillion this year. Analysts suggest that while the lost revenue will impact the fiscal position, it may not directly affect Prabowo’s flagship programs.

Ronny P Sasmita, Senior Analyst at the Indonesia Strategic and Economic Action Institution, argues that the government might consider raising debt or reallocating funds from low-priority projects to offset the lost revenue. However, he believes that Prabowo is unlikely to cut fuel subsidies to fund other programs due to the potential political backlash.

Yusuf Rendy Manilet, Economist at the Center of Reform on Economics (Core) Indonesia, agrees that the government has some room to maneuver and can consider optimizing revenues from other sectors, digitalizing taxation systems, and improving governance to compensate for the lost PPN increase.

Meanwhile, sustainability experts propose alternative revenue-generating measures. Tata Mustasya from SUSTAIN Indonesia suggests raising export taxes on coal and nickel to generate potentially Rp84.55 trillion to Rp353.7 trillion yearly. Abdurrahman Arum of Transisi Bersihi adds that a 10%-20% export tax on nickel products could generate Rp50 trillion to Rp100 trillion annually.

In conclusion, the Indonesian government’s decision to scrap the PPN hike has significant fiscal implications, posing challenges for President Prabowo’s administration. To offset the lost revenue, the government should explore various fiscal policy adjustments, improved governance, and revenue-generating measures to maintain its ambitious spending plans while ensuring fiscal sustainability.

Palembang Elementary Students Complaint: Nutritious Free Meal Program Limited to Only Tempeh and Tofu

by Chief Editor January 6, 2025
written by Chief Editor

Headline: Palembang‘s ‘Makan Bergizi Gratis‘ Program Launched: Students React to New School Meals

Subhead: Free Nutritious Meal Program inaugurated by President Prabowo Subianto starts in several schools in Palembang, Sumatra Selatan; students share mixed reviews about the menu.

Byline: Dai Dai

Body:

In a significant shift towards ensuring balanced nutrition for students, President Prabowo Subianto’s Free Nutritious Meal (Makan Bergizi Gratis, MBG) program kicked off today in various schools across Kota Palembang, Sumatra Selatan. Among the participating schools was SDN 25 on Jalan Inspektur Marzuki, Ilir Barat I.

The inaugural menu consisted of white rice, tofu, tempeh, stir-fried beans, and bananas. While reactions were mixed among the students, one thing was clear: the program has sparked conversation and curiosity about school meals.

Gibran, a third-grader at SDN 25, had strong feelings about the menu. "I don’t like tofu, tempeh, or stir-fried beans," he confessed. "I prefer chicken, fish, and stir-fried kangkung (water spinach)." Despite his dislike for the dishes, Gibran passively accepted his meal, stating he would take the rice home since he had already eaten breakfast.

Conversely, Queenza, another student, happily tucked into her MBG meal. "I like it because my mom often cooks this at home," she said, savoring her lunch.

SDN 25’s principal, Wiwin Purwanti, hoped that the menu could be varied to keep students engaged and interested in the meals. "Some children come to school already full from breakfast, but I hope the menu can be diversified to cater to everyone’s tastes," she added.

The meals and their portions are determined by the National Nutrition Board (Badan Gizi Nasional, BGN). The cost for TK and SD students is IDR 6,000 for ingredients, plus IDR 5,000 for transport and other miscellaneous expenses. For SMP students, the ingredients cost IDR 10,000, with another IDR 5,000 for transport and other expenses.

Kota Palembang’s Education Department Head, Adrianus Amri, revealed that the menus would rotate throughout the week. "Today it’s tofu and tempeh, but in the coming days, we’ll have fish, chicken, and beef options," he said. He also mentioned that the central kitchen for the program is provided by the BGN and is currently operational in three Ilir Barat I, Kalidoni, and Sukarami districts, with plans to collaborate with the military, local governments, and other catering services in the future.

The MBG program is set to run from Monday to Friday, serving as a significant stride towards ensuring that students in Palembang have access to balanced and nutritious meals.

Students Express Disappointment: No Veggies in Free Nutritious Meals at SMAMDA Sidoarjo

Student‘s Disappointment: Free School Meals Lack Nutritional Balance, Notably Missing Vegetables

Sidoarjo, Indonesia — Students participating in the Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program have expressed disappointment with the nutritional balance of the provided meals, notably the absence of vegetables.

Ar Robbyah, a student from SMA Muhammadiyah 2 Sidoarjo, was less than thrilled with the menu. "There were no vegetables, it was quite bland," he said after having his free meal at school on Monday, January 6, 2025. Robbyah also mentioned that the quantity was insufficient.

"The chicken was too bland and tough. The rice wasn’t enough for boys our age," he added. He also pointed out that the fruit (watermelon) was barely there, and the Milo was too little. "I hope tomorrow’s meal comes with more variety and quantity, especially vegetables and rice," he wished.

Sabila Putri, another student from the same school, echoed Robbyah’s concerns. "There were no vegetables," she said briefly. She also noted that the dishes were not balanced, with some boxes containing more food than others.

Despite the student’s complaints, Liesa Anggraeny, the school’s homeroom teacher, supports the MBG program. "It’s great for the students’ health. If they’re healthy, they can focus better on their studies," she said.

However, she understands the student’s sentiment and hopes that the future meals could be more balanced, including vegetables. "The meals provided today were five out of six healthy elements, but still not complete. There’s always room for improvement," she added.

Liesa hopes that the MBG program will continue for the students’ health and learning benefit.

Article:

JAKARTA – The National Nutrition Agency (Badan Gizi Nasional) is set to launch its Free Nutritious Meals (Makan Bergizi Gratis, MBG) program on January 6, 2025. To facilitate the inauguration, 937 kitchens have been established nationwide.

Badan Gizi Nasional’s Head of Legal and Public Relations Bureau, Lalu Muhammad Iwan Mahardan, stated that these kitchens are not concentrated on Java Island but rather spread across the country, with a heavier presence outside Java. This decision reflects the program’s primary target areas: underprivileged, remote, and negligent (3T) regions.

Mahardan revealed that the initial target recipients include children, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers, aiming to benefit a total of 3 million individuals nationwide. Each kitchen is prepared to serve 3,000 to 3,500 beneficiaries, with a focus on students aged five and above, attending kindergarten, elementary, junior high, and high schools, as well as expectant mothers.

The head of Badan Gizi Nasional, Dadan Hindayana, has asserted that the MBG program will indeed commence on January 6, 2025. He has begun preparations to ensure a smooth launch and has mentioned that the program will be rolled out simultaneously across various regions in Indonesia. However, Dadan has yet to disclose the specific locations where the program will first take effect.

"First, I will report to the President," he said briefly.

The National Nutrition Agency’s Free Nutritious Meals program is anticipated to significantly improve the nation’s food security and nutrition, particularly for vulnerable populations.

Fraudulent ‘Free Meals’ Scheme Entangles Hundreds of Catering Business Owners in Kediri

by Chief Editor December 27, 2024
written by Chief Editor

Title: Fake MBG Program Dupes Women Entrepreneurs in Kediri

In the fervor surrounding President Prabowo Subianto’s proposed Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program, opportunistic individuals have begun exploiting the initiative. In Kediri, scores of women entrepreneurs, primarily mothers running catering businesses, have fallen victim to a fake tender associated with the program.

The Scam Unfolds

Word of the scam spread rapidly among local catering entrepreneurs in Mojoroto, with over 70 women in the city and districts enticed by the false promise of MBG-related supplies. A self-proclaimed tender winner, allegedly linked to Kodim 0809 Kediri, approached these entrepreneurs, offering a tempting deal.

Under the guise of partnering to supply MBG packages, the scammer demanded a ‘collaboration fee‘ of at least IDR 1 million from each caterer. The scam was covertly promoted through word-of-mouth, targeting mostly stay-at-home mothers operative in the local food delivery scene.

The Allure and the Deception

Dwi Yuniarti, one such victim, recounted her experience, "Each caterer could agree to supply a different number of packages. For every 1,000 packages, an IDR 1 million fee was required." Dwi estimated that at least 43 women in Mojoroto alone had fallen for the scam, lured by the promise of significant profits within a short period.

The deceit included a promise of an upfront 40% payment for ingredients and a loan of IDR 20 million for purchasing equipment, further sweetening the deal.

The Aftermath

News of the scam has sent shockwaves through the local catering community. Many victims, having paid the fee, await updates on their ‘tender’ status, unaware they’ve been duped. Authorities have been notified, but no arrests have been made yet.

As the genuine MBG program remains inactive, authorities caution the public to be wary of any associated offers, especially those that require immediate payment or personal information.
