Indonesia Kickstarts $28 Billion Nationwide Free-Meal Program to Fight Malnutrition
JAKARTA — Indonesia’s new government started an ambitious project on Monday to fight malnutrition by feeding nearly 90 million children and pregnant women that is expected to cost $28 billion through 2029, although critics question whether the program is affordable.
