Reviewer 2 Report
This paper focused on the management of stunting case in Indonesia especially in borneo or Kalimantan island. It is interesting to read an analysis about stunting reduction program in Kalimantan. Authors need to address several inquiries before reviewer could give a proper decision regarding this paper.
Revision
1. In line 128-129, authors mentioned about the use of qualitative approach. A qualitative study design is different with a research using secondary data. Please remove the qualitative design and instead just use descriptive study using secondary data.
2. Figure 2 is not clear. Authors need to create separate graphics for each indicator to give more clear number and explanation.
3. Is it possible to compare the data with local data such as district health office or local survey? Because relying only in one data is not good compared with multiple sources
4. In the discussion, authors rarely compared the approach in this study with other countries or regions.

A: we have changed and explain in quantitative approach as you suggestion
Figure 2 is not clear. Authors need to create separate graphics for each indicator to give more clear number and explanation.
A: We cant change the figure because this figure we mad for government so we add some explanation to make a clear and easy read audience to understand
Is it possible to compare the data with local data such as district health office or local survey? Because relying only in one data is not good compared with multiple sources
A: we add table 1 as source of our data so we gather the data from several local survey
In the discussion, authors rarely compared the approach in this study with other countries or regions.
A: we focus only five province in Kalimantan and we have no idea about other countries and region because we discuss based on data
Thank you for your attention, we really hope that our research can be accepted
Reviewer 3 Report
- Methodology: The main bottleneck of the manuscript. Too brief information. Suggest to provide subsection to declare the whole process.

Reviewer 4 Report
TITLE: Stunting Convergence Management Framework Through System Integration Based on Regional Service Governance
Method - This part have to be implemented. It is necessary to describe clearly the data collection method, you have classified in different ranks the target groups of you research, please give more explanation concerning the “analysis of needs “. Please describe the statistical process by which you have achieved the results.
The understanding of the text would be facilitated by making tables that summarize the data of the analysis
From line 233 to 259 . In this section you mention twenty indicators grouped into eight actions, It is necessary to reframe this whole part by explaining in detail each point of the research, moreover it would be more appropriate to move the description of the approach used in the methodology.
Line 320 You mention: “A scientific approach to the role of leadership in building commitment and the role of staff who can manage continuous and sustainable data are important indicators in this paper to contribute to accelerating stunting reduction at the research locus based on Regency/City areas in Indonesia”. Please give some evidences concerning this assumption.
Line 324 “The description of the mother group, child group, family group, and environmental group in the paper is based on the availability of serial data from 2019-to 2021”. This is the crucial point of the manuscript and it is necessary to rewrite this article showing the evidence of the data obtained on the target groups.
It is not clear how to get to the data of the figures, moreover the information reported in them does not support all the assumptions and conjectures that are reported in the results
We are totally agree with the assumptions reported from line 420 to the lines 440, but these suggestions are not results of your survey. You can move this section directly to conclusions.
The authors deal in the following article with a topic of crucial importance that deserves to be taken into great consideration, but in order to be published this article must be rewritten with greater scientific rigor.

It is necessary to clearly describe the data collection method, you have classified in different ranks the target groups of your research, please give more explanation concerning the “analysis of needs”. Please describe the statistical process by which you have achieved the results.
A: In this section we changed several important things including the data collection process and where the data was obtained, we also added analytical techniques to clarify our research methods. At this time what is needed from this policy is still in the form of descriptive data with general analysis per region so that our calculations are based on data provided by the government to us and then we analyze based on descriptive data processed per region
The understanding of the text would be facilitated by making tables that summarize the data for the analysis
A: We have added a table, but to make it clearer the analysis is in the figure in the form of numbers
From line 233 to 259 . In this section you mention twenty indicators grouped into eight actions, It is necessary to reframe this whole part by explaining in detail each point of the research, moreover it would be more appropriate to move the description of the approach used in the methodology.
A: we have added and clarified this classification
Line 320 You mention: “A scientific approach to the role of leadership in building commitment and the role of staff who can manage continuous and sustainable data are important indicators in this paper to contribute to accelerating stunting reduction at the research locus based on Regency/City areas in Indonesia”. Please give some evidences concerning this assumption.
A: we have changed and followed your directions
Line 324 “The description of the mother group, child group, family group, and environmental group in the paper is based on the availability of serial data from 2019-to 2021”. This is the crucial point of the manuscript and it is necessary to rewrite this article showing the evidence of the data obtained on the target group.
A: We have added according to your instructions
It is not clear how to get to the data of the figures, moreover the information reported in them does not support all the assumptions and conjectures that are reported in the results
A: We made all of the images ourselves based on the data we got. Most of us writers are researchers in the government so we process the data directly from the source and create image visualizations to make it easier for the reader
We are totally agree with the assumptions reported from line 420 to the lines 440, but these suggestions are not the results of your survey. You can move this section directly to conclusions.
A: we have moved according to your suggestion
The authors deal in the following article with a topic of crucial importance that deserves to be taken into great consideration, but in order to be published this article must be rewritten with greater scientific rigor.
A: thank you, I hope this meets your criteria
Thank you for your attention, we really hope that our research can be accepted
Round 2
Reviewer 4 Report
Title: “Stunting Convergence Management Framework Through Sytem Integration Based on Regional Service Governance”
Line 42 There is strong evidence that poor childhood nutrition, as assessed by stunting or height-for-age, is associated with lower adult income” Please provide citations!
The manuscript talks about a lot of data but unfortunately we still don't understand how these data were aggregated, statistically analysed and how they vary over the period studied. Unfortunately there is no quantitative analysis. Since we are talking about data management systems, the analysis of data is essential to obtain results that serve as guidelines for creating integrated stunting reduction programs.
The data obtained from: Public Health Office, Social Ser-vices, Food Security Service, Department of Agriculture, Agency for the Protection of Women and Children, Education Authorities should be statistically re-processed to support the results. At the moment the results and conclusions are assumptions that can be shared but which remain unsupported by the evidence of the data.
Author Response
We've added a reference on line 42
This study focuses on research on Indonesian government regulations on priority programs that will be used to make decisions related to stunting reduction programs. This research does not use statistical inferentials because in this study the processing analyzed consisted of twenty stunting convergence coverage referring to regulations in Indonesia.
At this time what is needed by the Indonesian government is the suitability of the achievement data on the programs that have been implemented, are they effective enough and have reached the target or not? so that we, as part of the researchers from the Indonesian government, adjusted the existing data in regions with levels of attainment and classified based on Mother's group code: A.1.–A.5, Children and Young Women group: B.1 –B.6, Group of Family: C.1- C.3, and Neighborhoods group: D.1.–D.6.
According to Lind et al., (2017) supported by Saunder et al., (2019) the form of research does not have to be inferential statistics so that it is quite valid for our research to use this method as many other descriptive studies that use secondary data and data clustering
