Abstract

The increasing use of social media has created opportunities to examine public opinion regarding government policies through sentiment analysis approaches. This study analyzes public sentiment toward the budget allocation of the Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program in Indonesia using Twitter/X data and the IndoBERT model. Data were collected through keyword-based crawling techniques, resulting in 24,836 tweets, which were reduced to 18,742 tweets after preprocessing. The dataset was manually annotated into positive, negative, and neutral sentiment categories before being classified using IndoBERT. The evaluation results indicate that the proposed model achieved strong performance, with an accuracy of 92.41%, precision of 91.86%, recall of 92.03%, F1-score of 91.94%, and ROC-AUC value of 0.961. The findings reveal that negative sentiment dominated public discourse, primarily associated with concerns regarding fiscal sustainability, transparency, and policy priorities. Positive sentiment mainly emphasized nutritional benefits and educational welfare impacts. The study demonstrates that transformer-based NLP models are effective for analyzing Indonesian social media discourse and provides practical insights for evidence-based policymaking and digital governance evaluation.

Abstract

Stunting remains a major public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly in rural areas. This community service program aims to enhance health literacy and digital skills among residents of Suralaga Village by optimizing the “Stunt Guard” web application as an educational and monitoring tool for stunting prevention. Activities included socialization, training, and intensive mentoring for posyandu cadres and mothers of young children. Evaluation using pre-test and post-test revealed a significant increase in participants’ knowledge and preventive behaviors after the intervention. These results indicate that utilizing web-based applications is effective in strengthening community involvement in monitoring child growth and supporting participatory, sustainable stunting prevention efforts. This program is expected to serve as a replicable digital empowerment model to accelerate the reduction of stunting rates in Indonesia.
