The Emmo JVX GT electric motorcycle, reportedly prepared for the Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) program, has gained attention across social media after videos showed multiple units wrapped in plastic with Badan Gizi Nasional (BGN) stickers (09/04).

Dadan Hindayana, head of BGN, confirmed that the motorcycles were part of the 2025 budget plan, intended to support the operational needs of Kepala Satuan Pelayanan Pemenuhan Gizi (SPPG). “The procurement of these motorcycles is indeed in the 2025 budget. Their function is to support the operational duties of SPPG heads,” he said.

Clarifying the Procurement Numbers

Contrary to viral reports claiming 70,000 units, the actual order consisted of 25,000 units, with 21,801 units already realized (09/04). Dadan emphasized that the higher figure circulating online was incorrect.

The motorcycles are believed to be Emmo JVX GT adventure-style electric bikes, available through the government’s centralized electronic procurement system managed by LKPP. This platform allows direct purchases of local products without lengthy tenders.
