**Depok, Indonesia – January 12, 2025**
In a heartwarming display of gratitude, elementary school students in Depok have been leaving touching messages for President Prabowo Subianto at the Free Nutritious Meal Center. The government’s Free Nutritious Meal Program has garnered a positive response from these young students, who have expressed their appreciation in a truly touching manner.
**Expressing Gratitude through Messages**
Regita, a third-grade student, shared her heartfelt thanks for the Free Nutritious Meal Program, which has allowed her to save her pocket money. She left a note for President Prabowo along with a drawing of him with her beloved cat, Bobby. In her message, Regita wrote, “Thank you, Pak Prabowo, for all the meals. I can save money because my pocket money is intact (thanks to the program).” She concluded her note with well wishes for the President’s health and prosperity.
Aliya, a fifth-grade student, and Alenna, a sixth-grade student at SDN Cilangkap 8, also expressed their love and appreciation for President Prabowo through their messages. Aliya wrote, “Thank you, Pak Prabowo, the food is delicious, awesome. I love you,” accompanied by two red and pink heart drawings.

**Praise for Delicious Meals**
Aisya, a fifth-grade student, also lauded the delicious menu provided through the program, expressing her gratitude towards President Prabowo. The Free Nutritious Meal Program, a flagship initiative of President Prabowo Subianto, has been operational for a week, with distribution taking place at 190 locations across 26 provinces since January 6, 2025.
**Ensuring Quality and Sustainability**
To ensure the quality and sustainability of the program, the government has implemented stringent measures. The Satuan Pelayanan Pemenuhan Gizi (SPPG), appointed by the National Nutrition Agency (BGN), manages the kitchens responsible for supplying meals to program beneficiaries. Collaboration with a nutritionist and an accountant ensures the quality of nutrition, cleanliness standards, food distribution, and waste management in each MBG kitchen.
In a bid for sustainability, the government has opted for hygienic, reusable stainless steel meal containers. This move underscores the commitment to providing nutritious meals while minimizing environmental impact.
Through these heartwarming messages and gestures of gratitude, the students of Depok have not only shown their appreciation for the Free Nutritious Meal Program but also highlighted the positive impact of such initiatives on their lives and communities. President Prabowo’s commitment to ensuring access to nutritious meals for all reflects a vision of a healthier, more prosperous Indonesia.
