He believes that changing public\nbehaviour in waste segregation is crucial for gradually and sustainably\nreducing the volume of mixed waste entering landfills and the integrated\nwaste disposal site at Bantargebang. He further explained that the\ninitial phase focuses on establishing waste segregation habits among the\npublic. Additionally, the agency is ensuring consistent waste\nsegregation systems from households to neighbourhoods and waste\ncollection officers. \u2018According to the implementation timeline, May to\nJune is focused on awareness campaigns, education, and providing\nsupporting infrastructure for waste segregation,\u2019 Dudi explained.\nFollowing this phase, waste segregation implementation will be gradually\nexpanded and strengthened across communities. \u2018The DKI Jakarta\nEnvironmental Agency will continue regular monitoring and evaluation of\nwaste reduction at the source as the program is implemented across\ncommunities, areas, and business sectors,\u2019 Dudi added.<\/p>",
