Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program is one of Indonesia's flagship government initiatives aimed at improving nutritional status, strengthening human capital, and promoting inclusive economic development. Beyond its social objectives, the program is expected to stimulate regional economic activity through increased demand for locally produced food commodities, employment creation, and multiplier effects across agricultural and food supply chains. However, empirical evidence regarding its contribution to regional economic growth remains limited. This study examines the impact of the MBG program on economic growth in South Sumatra Province by comparing regional economic performance before (2023–2024) and after (2025) the implementation of the program. A quantitative comparative research design was employed using a before-and-after approach. The study focuses on six districts and municipalities representing the highest and lowest Human Development Index (HDI) categories. Data were obtained from official publications of the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of South Sumatra Province. The analysis applies descriptive statistics, paired-samples t-tests, and simple linear regression to evaluate the program's economic impact. The findings reveal a statistically significant increase in regional economic growth following the implementation of the MBG program. The regression results further indicate that the program exerts a positive and significant influence on economic growth, suggesting that government expenditure on nutrition programs functions as an effective fiscal stimulus capable of generating local economic multiplier effects. Moreover, the analysis demonstrates that the program produces stronger economic impacts in regions with lower HDI, implying that less-developed areas derive greater benefits from public investments in nutrition and human capital. These findings support Keynesian fiscal theory and human capital theory, highlighting the dual role of nutrition programs as instruments for improving social welfare and promoting regional economic development. The study recommends prioritizing MBG implementation in disadvantaged regions while strengthening local agricultural supply chains to maximize its long-term economic benefits.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of the reward system, job satisfaction, career development, work culture, and work motivation on employees’ work discipline at Karunia Indah Medika Hospital, Muara Enim. This research employed a quantitative approach with a survey method. The population consisted of 160 employees, and all members of the population were selected as respondents using a total sampling technique. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that simultaneously the reward system, job satisfaction, career development, work culture, and work motivation have a significant effect on employees’ work discipline (F = 57.447; sig. = 0.000; Adjusted R² = 0.640). Partially, work culture and work motivation have a significant effect on work discipline, whereas the reward system, job satisfaction, and career development do not have a significant effect on employees’ work discipline.

Abstract

The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) is a national priority policy of the Indonesian Government for the 2024–2029 period aimed at improving children's nutrition while simultaneously stimulating the local economy. This study analyzes the comparative impact of MBG on economic growth, the agricultural sector, and household consumption before and after program implementation in South Sumatra, as well as comparing its effectiveness between high and low Human Development Index (HDI) regions. The research employed a comparative quantitative approach with a before-after design across 17 districts/cities, focusing on three highest HDI regions (Palembang City, Prabumulih, Lubuklinggau) and three lowest HDI regions (Empat Lawang, South OKU, PALI). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired sample t-tests, and simple linear regression with SPSS version 25. The results indicate that MBG has a significant positive effect on economic growth (β=0.348; p<0.001) and the agricultural sector (β=1.945; p<0.001), but a negative impact on household consumption (β=-0.514; p<0.001). The economic impact was greater in low HDI areas, with an economic growth increase of 0.40 percentage points compared to only 0.14 percentage points in high HDI areas. These findings support prioritizing MBG implementation in disadvantaged regions for more inclusive development.
