00:00The head of the office of President Anton Mukti Putranto ensured that the implementation of the free food program or MBG would not use public funds.
00:12The statement responds to the use of zakat funds to support the free food program, which was delivered by the head of the DPRI, Sultan Bahtiyar Najamuddin.
00:23At his office in Rabu 15 January, Putranto said that the use of zakat for the free food program was not in line with the purpose of zakat.
00:34In addition, the government has also allocated a large budget for the program.
00:41The purpose of zakat is not for that.
00:44Because the president has been sincere in giving the best for the Indonesian nation,
00:49to the students, pregnant women, and he has allocated 71 trillion rupiah.
00:59So he doesn't take other funds. He is really amazing.
01:04So no one said to take from where?
01:06Zakat.
01:07Zakat or what? That's very embarrassing.
01:11The 71 trillion funds, according to Putranto, will be used gradually throughout 2025
01:19and will certainly reach the people in need.
