        "summary": "Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has acknowledged that local measures alone cannot fully resolve the capital's air pollution problem as long as coal-fired power plants and industries in surrounding areas continue to operate. He specifically cited the Suralaya coal-fired power plant in Banten as a major contributor. Pramono called for central government coordination to regulate emissions across the greater Jakarta agglomeration.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has said that the various measures\nundertaken by his administration will not fully resolve the problem of\npoor air quality as long as coal-based industries and coal-fired power\nplants (PLTU) in the buffer zones remain operational.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe main issue is how coordination works within the Jakarta\nagglomeration, especially for areas that still permit their industries\nto use coal as fuel,\u201d Pramono said in South Jakarta on Thursday\n(20\/8).<\/p>\n<p>According to him, if coal-based industries and power plants were not\npermitted, the impact on reducing pollution in Jakarta would be far\ngreater. He made reference to the Suralaya coal-fired power plant in\nBanten.<\/p>\n<p>Pramono said the provincial government has been making efforts to\naddress the air quality problem.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, whatever the government does within Jakarta by introducing\nelectric vehicles, improving transportation, and shifting people from\nprivate to public transport, in my view it will not fully resolve the\nproblem if the suburban areas or regions surrounding Jakarta are still\nallowed to have industries using coal-fired power generation, because\nthat is one of the main sources,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Pramono expressed hope that the central government would also step in\nto coordinate so that the air quality problem can be addressed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTherefore, as Governor of Jakarta, I hope there will be coordination\nwith the central government so that those contributing to the still-high\nemissions can be regulated together,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
