Garuda Indonesia Pledges Support for President's Nutritious Meal Program, Emphasizing Quality

Gerakan Dapur Indonesia (Garuda), an organization focused on food initiatives, has pledged its full support for President Prabowo Subianto's national "Free Nutritious Meal" (MBG) program. The commitment was solidified following the organization's chairwoman, Nofalia Heikal Safar, attendance at a national consolidation meeting led by the President in Bogor.

The large-scale event brought together over 12,000 MBG implementers and partners from across Indonesia. During the meeting, President Prabowo provided detailed strategic directives, emphasizing the critical importance of food quality for the program's beneficiaries, primarily children. He specifically instructed that eggs served should be boiled or fried, explicitly prohibiting scrambled eggs to preserve nutritional value.

Nofalia Heikal Safar expressed deep appreciation for the President's meticulous attention to detail, particularly regarding the preparation of eggs and the portioning of chicken. She stated that the President's focus on such specifics demonstrates the government's serious commitment to the MBG program. Safar highlighted that the initiative is viewed not merely as food aid but as a significant investment in building a healthier, stronger, and more competitive future generation for Indonesia.
