Help keep city clean: Mayor

JAKARTA (JP): South Jakarta Mayor H.Pardjoko has called on all
residents, including shop owners and people living along major
roads, to help keep the city clean.

"I will never get bored of touring Jakarta, inspecting and
leading the regular cleanliness campaigns sponsored by the city
administration, so that the capital lives up to its motto:
Jakarta Teguh Beriman," Pardjoko told Antara.

Teguh Beriman is the abbreviation of the Indonesian Teruskan
Gerakan Untuk Hidup Bersih, Menarik dan Aman, which means:
Movement for the continuation of clean, interesting and peaceful
life.

Pardjoko expressed deep concern about the fact that many shop
owners, whose shops are located on major roads, have not yet paid
full attention to the cleanliness around their areas.

He said the city administration has assigned private parties
to be in charge of cleanliness along the city's main roads. "So
far, however, they have not performed up to expectations, as
proved by the fact that those shop owners have yet to place
garbage bins in front of their shops." (bas)
