Indonesia protesters call for end to free school meals amid latest spate of food poisonings
Concerns again over the safety of Indonesia's free meal programme, after another case of food poisoning involving schoolchildren. The latest incident has affected more than 300 students and teachers in West Bandung, a district on the island of Java. Protesters have gathered in Jakarta to call for an end to the programme and a full evaluation of its implementation. So far, thousands have reportedly fallen ill since President Prabowo Subianto's flagship initiative began earlier this year. Randy Mulyanto reports from Jakarta.
