The impact of the MBG program has now spread to ordinary people, including small suppliers such as fruit and fish vendors supplying MBG kitchens. Due to ongoing issues, they have not been paid by the institutions or foundations that own and operate several of these kitchens.

While these suppliers are simply trying to recover their unpaid relatively small money, the kitchen operators themselves are reportedly pending, wasting several billion rupiah every day.
