He praised the local government's effective, low-tech system that processes household waste into products like plastic pellets, paving blocks, and roof tiles, positioning it as a scalable model for other regions and even international interest. Prabowo committed central government support to expand the initiative and back Banyumas's goal of zero waste by 2028, highlighting a proactive approach to environmental policy.",
        "content": "<p>President Prabowo Subianto claims he will control the waste problem\nbefore the end of his first term. The General Chairman of the Gerindra\nParty promises to resolve this issue within two to three years.<\/p>\n<p>Prabowo emphasised that waste management has now become one of the\nnational priorities. \u201cWe are developing everything, waste processing is\nnow a national priority. In two to three years, we must control waste\nacross all of Indonesia,\u201d he said during a visit to the Environment and\nEducation-Based Integrated Waste Processing Site (TPST BLE) in Banyumas\nRegency, Central Java, on Tuesday, 28 April 2026.<\/p>\n<p>On that occasion, Prabowo expressed appreciation to the Banyumas\nRegency Government for the breakthrough in integrated waste management,\nfrom household to regency level. Prabowo stated that the same scheme\ncould serve as an example for other regions.<\/p>\n<p>Prabowo said he was impressed with the waste distribution and\nprocessing flow in Banyumas. The regency also produces plastic pellets,\npaving blocks, and roof tiles from processed plastic waste at TPST BLE\nBanyumas.<\/p>\n<p>Prabowo described the processing technology in Banyumas as not overly\nsophisticated but effective. \u201cWe carry out what is termed waste\nprocessing using technology that is not too sophisticated but effective,\nmostly using local products, and within an integrated system from\nhousehold to regency level,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>According to Prabowo, the system is quite effective and has the\npotential to become a model for various regions in Indonesia, even\nattracting attention from other countries. \u201cSo I think this is very\neffective as an example for many provinces, many regencies, even other\ncountries have come here,\u201d said the retired general.<\/p>\n<p>The President also promised direct support from the central\ngovernment to strengthen and expand the waste processing system in\nBanyumas. He claimed to support the Banyumas Regency Government\u2019s target\nof achieving zero waste by 2028.<\/p>",
