        "summary": "The Cimahi City Government has suspended household waste collection services for two days following Eid al-Fitr to address the sharp increase in waste accumulation during Ramadan, with daily volumes rising from 250 to over 300 tonnes due to heightened consumption and packaging. Services will resume on 25 March 2026 with an alternating schedule for organic and inorganic waste, urging residents to sort at home, while provincial limits on landfill quotas at TPA Sarimukti exacerbate the challenges. This measure highlights ongoing waste management strains in urban areas during festive periods, underscoring the need for better infrastructure and public participation.",
        "content": "<p>The Cimahi City Government has temporarily halted household waste\ncollection services for two days after Eid al-Fitr. This decision was\ntaken to tackle the sharp increase in waste accumulation during\nRamadan.<\/p>\n<p>The suspension of services applies to 23\u201324 March 2026, focusing on\ncleaning Temporary Waste Disposal Sites (TPS) before transport to the\nSarimukti Landfill in West Bandung Regency.<\/p>\n<p>The Head of the Cimahi City Environmental Agency, Chanifah\nListyarini, stated that waste collection from homes would be paused for\ntwo days. \u201cWe are suspending door-to-door waste collection until Monday\nand Tuesday. We will carry out a clean-up over these two days,\u201d said\nChanifah.<\/p>\n<p>Chanifah explained that services would return to normal on Wednesday\n(25\/3\/2026) with an alternating system for sorting organic and inorganic\nwaste. Residents are asked to sort their waste at home to align with the\ncollection schedule.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo the schedule is alternating. For example, this week organic, then\ninorganic. So residents must sort their waste at home,\u201d said\nChanifah.<\/p>\n<p>Chanifah noted that waste accumulation has occurred at nearly all TPS\ndue to the surge in production during Ramadan. The usual daily waste\nvolume of around 250 tonnes has increased to more than 300 tonnes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s very high, the increase is very significant. The waste increase\nis around 30-40 percent. Now it can be more than 300 tonnes every day\nduring this fasting month,\u201d said Chanifah.<\/p>\n<p>Chanifah revealed that the waste surge is not only driven by food\nconsumption but also by increased packaging from takeaway food. Based on\nfield findings, waste volume at the neighbourhood level has risen\nsignificantly during Ramadan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverything is packaged, and that has an effect too. Yesterday we\nconducted a small survey, chatting with one neighbourhood unit,\ninitially the volume was less than 9 carts. But once the school meal\nprogramme was not consumed at school during Ramadan because it was\ndistributed and taken home, the waste rose again to 12-13 carts,\u201d said\nChanifah.<\/p>\n<p>Chanifah added that the waste production surge is not matched by an\nincrease in the disposal quota to the Sarimukti Landfill, which is\nlimited by the provincial government. These restrictions mean that\ntransport trips cannot keep up with the increased waste volume.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMeanwhile, the disposal quota has not been increased at all by the\nprovince. The trips are very restricted, especially now with the\nweighing system. The quota that should last 14 days now only lasts 10\ndays,\u201d said Chanifah.<\/p>",
