President Prabowo Subianto has announced a bold plan to expand the Free Nutritious Meal Program (Makan Bergizi Gratis / MBG) to reach 82.9 million children throughout Indonesia by the end of 2025. This initiative, outlined during the 27th anniversary of the National Awakening Party (PKB) at the Jakarta Convention Center, is deemed a national priority and an urgent matter. Prabowo recounted a poignant experience during a recent visit to Central Java, where the overwhelming demand for the program was palpable. Witnessing schoolchildren eagerly requesting nutritious meals along the road from Solo to Klaten deeply moved him to accelerate the program’s implementation. With a target of reaching 20 million children by mid-August, Prabowo’s team is dedicated to ensuring that every child receives the necessary nourishment to thrive and succeed. The global attention garnered by this initiative highlights Indonesia’s commitment to addressing child hunger, malnutrition, and educational disparities. As Prabowo sets forth this ambitious goal, he remains steadfast in his determination to deliver tangible results and be held accountable for his promises by the end of 2025 or early 2026. By prioritizing the well-being and development of all children, regardless of their circumstances, the Free Nutritious Meal Program resonates with Prabowo’s overarching vision to create a brighter future for Indonesia’s youth.
