JAKARTA - Head of the National Nutrition Agency (BGN) Dadan Hindayana revealed, there are 12 districts in Indonesia that do not yet have a Free Nutrition Eating kitchen or also known as the Nutrition Fulfillment Service Unit (SPPG).

Dadan said, until now, SPPG has spread over 38 provinces, 502 districts and 4,777 sub-districts from 7,200 sub-districts.

"So, there are still 12 districts that do not have a SPPG yet," Dadan said in the signing of the Joint MoU with the Ministry of Public Works in Jakarta, Tuesday, August 5.

He detailed the 12 districts, including Sumba Regency (East Nusa Tenggara), Mahakam Hulu (East Kalimantan) and Konawe Islands (Southeast Sulawesi).

Then, nine districts in Papua, namely the Arfak Mountains (West Papua); Asmat (South Papua); Puncak Jaya (Central Papua); Bintan Mountains (Papua Mountains); Tolikara Regency (Papua Mountains); Central Mamberamo (Papua Mountains); Yalimo (Papua Mountains); and Lanny Jaya (Papua Mountains).

"These are 12 districts that so far there has not been a single Nutrition Fulfillment Service Unit (SPPG), 502 other districts already exist," explained Dadan.

Lebih lanjut, Dadan menyampaikan, hingga Selasa, 5 Agustus, total Satuan Pelayanan Pemenuhan Gizi (SPPG) terbangun mencapai 3.233 yang berasal dari non-APBN.

Menurut Dadan, SPPG itu telah melayani sebanyak 8,2 juta penerima manfaat. Sementara, pihaknya menargetkan pada minggu ini total penerima manfaat bisa mencapai 12 juta orang.

"Ini mencakup 4.000 SPPG dan itu murni kemitraan yang dibangun investor, kemudian kerja sama dengan BGN," tutur dia.

Furthermore, Dadan said, until Tuesday, August 5, the total Gizi Fulfillment Service Unit (SPPG) was built to reach 3,233 from non-APBN.

According to Dadan, the SPPG has served 8.2 million beneficiaries. Meanwhile, his party targets that this week the total beneficiaries can reach 12 million people.

"This includes 4,000 SPPGs and it is purely a partnership that investors build, then cooperation with BGN," he said.
