JAKARTA - The Head of the National Nutrition Agency (BGN), Dadan Hindayana, apologized for the alleged poisoning case in the Free Nutritious Meal (MBG) program at SMAN 2 Kudus, Central Java.
Dadan said his party had conducted investigations and analyses of a number of Nutrition Fulfillment Service Units (SPPG) suspected of being involved in the incident.
"First, I as the Head of the National Nutrition Agency apologize to the beneficiaries who experienced unpleasant events. We have conducted investigations and analyses of several SPPG that experienced the incident," said Dadan in Bogor, Monday, February 2.
As a form of action, BGN will give a yellow card to SPPG which is proven to have violated the procedure with a high level of violation. This sanction can lead to a temporary suspension of operations for a certain period of time.
"There are SPPGs that we will give a yellow light or a yellow card because they violate the more severe procedures. Then we will evaluate and maybe it will be stopped for a while," he said.
In addition to cracking down on food suppliers, BGN also carried out a thorough evaluation of the Free Nutritious Meal menu. Several types of menus will be avoided in the future to reduce the risk of similar cases.
"We will make a circular so that the nutritious meal program can run more safely," he said.
The case of alleged MBG poisoning in Kudus is currently still being handled by the parties concerned. BGN emphasizes its commitment to tightening supervision and ensuring the quality and safety of food in the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meal program in all regions.
