Local traders and shoppers report daily collection efforts but complain of persistent high volumes, reaching up to six metres, dominated by vegetable and fruit waste, causing strong odours that disrupt daily activities.

        "content": "<p>JAKARTA - Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has claimed that all waste\nin various parts of Jakarta has been managed as of Tuesday (31\/3\/2026).\nHowever, a different situation is evident at the Temporary Waste Storage\nSite (TPS) in Kramat Jati Main Market, East Jakarta. Piles of rubbish in\nthe area have been mounting for the past month, following restrictions\non operations at the Bantargebang Integrated Waste Processing Site\n(TPST) in Bekasi City. One rubbish truck belonging to the Jakarta\nEnvironmental Agency (DLH) was seen transporting waste loaded into the\ntruck bed using heavy machinery such as a shovel. Although\ntransportation has been carried out, the rubbish piles remain quite\nhigh, reaching around six metres and dominated by vegetable and fruit\nwaste. Additionally, a pungent odour is detectable around the TPS, which\nborders directly with traders\u2019 stalls. One trader, Yanto (38), stated\nthat rubbish collection is indeed carried out every day. However, the\nhigh volume of waste means the piles continue to mount. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t\ndecrease significantly, just look at that (the rubbish condition). But\nit is collected every day; last Friday there were many trucks\n(collecting rubbish),\u201d said Yanto when met on Wednesday. \u201cI want it to\nbe sorted out quickly, not to drag on. The smell is really disturbing,\nespecially during the daytime,\u201d he added. Tutik (51), a resident\nshopping at Kramat Jati Main Market, echoed similar sentiments. She\nadmitted to being disturbed by the pungent smell from the rubbish piles.\n\u201cIt smells really bad, it\u2019s uncomfortable. But what can I do? I\u2019m\nlooking for supplies for my regular customers, so I have to come here,\u201d\nshe said. She added that the accumulation of rubbish at Kramat Jati Main\nMarket is not the first time it has happened. Although it was once\ncleared, the rubbish piles up again. \u201cYes, in January it happened (the\nrubbish was collected), but as far as I remember it was already\ncollected, but I don\u2019t know why it\u2019s like this again,\u201d she\nexplained.<\/p>",
