JAKARTA - Sumedang Regent Dony Ahmad Munir could not cover his pride after the stunting handling application made in his Regency, the Integrated Stunting Handling Information System (e-Simpati) was replicated by the Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) to deal with stunting in other areas.

The regent said, the presence of the Minister of Health in Sumedang Regency who also appreciated the e-Simpati application was a motivation for Sumedang Regency to be the best in Indonesia. "I am very grateful for the presence of the Minister, we were given suggestions and input and this is our own motivation for the better," said Dony in Sumedang, West Java, Friday, February 10, quoted from Antara.

The e-Simpati application is an application that has data accuracy. Because the name and address in the stunting data in the application according to him is very clear.

Therefore, according to him, the application will be replicated by the Ministry of Health for stunting handling in 50 regencies and cities in Indonesia. "And Sumedang said that the Minister of Health could be a pilot for stunting," he said. Meanwhile, Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin said 50 districts and cities that will try the application are areas with a high stunting rate. "I have asked the Regent for permission yesterday, may I use it nationally," said Budi.
