        "summary": "Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has stated that resolving the capital's waste management issues cannot be done with a 'magic trick', as many parties have long profited from the current system. He announced a three-step enforcement plan against illegal dump sites, including public disclosure, fines, and the closure of companies that fail to comply. Pramono also acknowledged that his crackdown would likely provoke attacks against him but stressed that internal reform and fairness are essential for the public good.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung has addressed efforts to reform waste\nmanagement in the capital, emphasising that the problem cannot be solved\ninstantly because many parties have profited from the existing\npractices. \u201cTo handle this waste problem, it cannot be done with a magic\ntrick. Many people have been enjoying the benefits of it,\u201d Pramono said\nat Jakarta City Hall on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Pramono stated that he has instructed the Jakarta Provincial\nGovernment to take firm steps regarding illegal waste disposal sites.\nThe measures include public disclosure, imposing fines, and closing down\ncompanies that fail to improve. \u201cFirst, they will be publicly named.\nSecond, they will be fined. Third, the companies that have been\nprofiting from the hotel, restaurant, and catering sector waste, if they\ncannot improve, they will be shut down,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that the reform of waste management in Jakarta has brought\npreviously hidden issues to the surface. \u201cSince we took these firm\nsteps, problems like those in Cilincing have emerged that were not\nvisible before,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n<p>Pramono acknowledged that the reform efforts are likely to face\nresistance and predicted that he would come under attack. \u201cSurely, many\nwill attack me as Governor, but I will not back down,\u201d he stressed. He\nexplained that the overhaul of waste management is being carried out for\nthe benefit of Jakarta\u2019s residents. \u201cWhat for? For the improvement of\nwaste management in Jakarta. This is for our common good,\u201d Pramono\nadded.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Pramono emphasised the need for internal reform within\nthe Jakarta Provincial Government, insisting that enforcement must be\nfair. \u201cWith all due respect, I also have to carry out internal\nimprovements. So, it must be fair and just,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>In a related matter, Pramono responded to reports of journalists\nbeing intimidated while covering illegal waste disposal sites in\nCilincing. He assured that the Jakarta Provincial Government is ready to\nprovide assistance to media crews who wish to conduct coverage. \u201cIf they\nneed to go there and require accompaniment from the Civil Service Police\nUnit or law enforcement officers, we will provide that assistance,\u201d he\nconcluded.<\/p>",
