I did nasi that coming (just kidding, I did)

While in Jakarta, we have been staying at one of the many POP! hotels in Indonesia. One of the nice features of our stay has been the free breakfast:

Rice is a staple of Indonesian cuisine; it can be found in every meal of the day. In fact, I would go so far as to say it is the primary source of calories in the Indonesian diet. Some common rice dishes include nasi goreng, nasi uduk, and nasi kuning. Nasi goreng is considered to be the state dish of Indonesia, and when President Barack Obama went on an official state visit to the Presidential Palace of Indonesia, it is said that the White House specifically asked for nasi goreng to be placed on the evening's dinner menu.

In 2010, 18% of children in Indonesia under the age of 5 were reported to be underweight. Although significant progress has been made since 1989, when 31% of Indonesian children under 5 were considered underweight, there is still room for improvement. Between 2012 and 2013, Indonesia was able to increase rice production by 5%. As rice production continues to increase, hopefully Indonesia will be able to provide adequate nutrition to more and more of its population in the years to come.
