Jakarta (ANTARA) - Jakarta DPRD member Yuke Yurike has requested the\nJakarta Provincial Government to strengthen assistance to the community\nahead of the implementation of the waste sorting policy on 1 August\n2026.<\/p>\n
According to her, while residents are beginning to understand the\nimportance of sorting waste, they still require socialisation, training,\nand certainty regarding the collection system.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat must be ensured is assistance, socialisation, training, and the\nwaste collection system. This way, the community can sort and process\nwaste optimally,\u201d Yuke said in Jakarta on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
During a recess in Ciganjur Village, Jagakertsa District, South\nJakarta, she stated that waste management issues were among the many\naspirations expressed by residents.<\/p>\n
Residents are questioning the waste management flow after sorting and\nare requesting continuous assistance.<\/p>\n
Therefore, she continued, education must not stop at merely inviting\npeople to sort waste. The Jakarta government must also ensure that the\npublic understands the function of supporting facilities, such as\nbiopores and composters, and knows where the sorted waste will be\ntransported.<\/p>\n
She assessed that the success of this policy depends on the\ncollaboration of various parties. The government, communities, and waste\nbank managers must work together so that the community receives\nsustainable assistance.<\/p>\n
She also emphasised that the Jakarta government needs to provide\nbasic facilities, ranging from waste bags, bins, and composters to a\nclear collection system, so that residents are not confused after\nfulfilling their obligation to sort waste.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must ensure that the community is not asked to sort waste only to\nbecome confused later due to a lack of follow-up. This must be\nevaluated, especially since there is only about one month left until the\npolicy implementation,\u201d said Yuke.<\/p>\n
In addition to strengthening education, she hopes that all regional\napparatus organisations can be more responsive to various public\naspirations.<\/p>\n
\u201cSynergy between the DPRD, the Jakarta Provincial Government,\nvillages, districts, and relevant agencies is the key to ensuring every\npolicy can be implemented effectively on the ground,\u201d she explained.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/legislator-urges-jakarta-provincial-government-to-strengthen-assistance-on-waste-sorting-1782904812", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
