TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The number of children affected by food poisoning linked to the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program has continued to soar. JPPI notes a clear, escalating trend of MBG poisoning victims throughout September. JPPI sharply criticized the government's response, which has been limited to the temporary closure of problematic Nutrition Fulfillment Service Units (SPPG) or MBG kitchens. This program was rushed for political image, not for the protection and fulfillment of children's nutrition," Ubaid concluded.
