Jakarta (Antara) – Coordinating Minister of Food for Food Zonkifli Hasan (Zulhas) emphasized that milk is an important part of the National Food Program because it plays an important role in creating a healthy, strong and intelligent generation of worldwide challenges.
He said that the most important presidential program with regard to food elements of carbohydrates and proteins includes, where milk occupies a strategic position in supporting the intelligence and growth of Indonesian children.
“Indeed, Mr. President’s most important program (Prabowo Subianto) is a matter of food, food in a broad sense. There is carbohydrates, there is proteins, including milk that is very important in it,” said Zulhas for the commemoration of the Nusantara Milk Day in Jakarta on Sunday.
Zulhas said that the problem of nutrition is not only the responsibility of the government, but it requires synergy of all elements, including the private sector, the community and the national players in the dairy industry.
The president, Zulhas said, did not want the Indonesian people who lacked nutrition, because these disorders would have a direct impact on the quality of human resources in the future.
“The president does not want Indonesian people to be malnourished. The malnutrition is certainly not intelligent, not strong in the enormous era of the competition,” he said.
He gave an example of a country like South Korea and China that is now being shot because it has succeeded in improving the food quality of his generation, one of which is due to an extensive consumption of dairy products.
In the past, according to him, the Indonesian youngsters were physically tailored to other Asian countries, but now lagging behind because it is not maximized when strengthening food security based on balanced food.
“I have a bit of experience, I traded in China in 1983, with South Korea, Thailand, Vietnam in 1983. Earlier his young children or their parents were both physical (physical). If our fence is in balance, we can win, but almost equivalent,” he said.
That is why the coordination of Minister Zuldhas encouraged increased milk consumption as a strategic step to speed up the progress of the nation and to catch up today.
“We have laid a solid foundation, which is strong. That is because there is no country that can claim great if the food is missing,” he said.
He also emphasized, milk is not only a drink, but an investment in the long term to print a superior generation that will bring Indonesia to become a developed country.
“If it is trying to go to Seoul or to Beijing or to Vietnam, it is already high. The person is already high, his body is healthy, it can be different. He has begun to hunt like Europeans, and that is because of food. That is what we want to pursue,” said Zulhas.
