According to him, the idea of ​​a free lunch program started when he saw many hungry people directly. Even when he was a commander of a task force in the forest, he saw people dying of hunger directly.

That became Prabowo's determination to realize the free school lunch program. He hopes that with the existence of this program, it can certainly alleviate the lives of the people in the homeland.

"So basically, I am a troop commander, the army's operations are not in big cities, not in Menteng, we are in the mountains, I see people starving, I see people in front of my tent dying of hunger, so for me, the issue of food is crucial," said Prabowo.
