of 0.921 times stunted compared to toddlers in the Papua region. The Java-Bali region was 0.805 times more
likely than toddlers in the Papua region to be stunted. The Nusa Tenggara Region was 1.39 times more likely
than toddlers in the Papua region to be stunted. Kalimantan Region has 1.161 times more likely than toddlers
in the Papua region to be stunted. The Sulawesi region has 1.18 times the possibility of toddlers in the Papua
region being stunted. Maluku region has a probability of 0.88 times that of toddlers in the Papua region to
