Badung Cleans Irrigation Channels, Encourages Waste Sorting Culture

BADUNG, GARISBUMI.com – The Badung Regency Government held an action to clean the environment and irrigation channels in the Badung Government Center (Puspem) area, Friday (9/10/2026). This activity is a momentum to strengthen the habit of maintaining cleanliness and sorting waste in office and community environments.

Badung Regent I Wayan Adi Arnawa, who led the activity, emphasized the importance of building environmental awareness through daily awareness. According to him, the habit of maintaining cleanliness needs to continue to grow without waiting for instructions.

The clean-up action was held as a series of commemorations for Tumpek Wayang as well as continuing routine community service activities every Friday.

Adi Arnawa was present with Deputy Regent of Badung Bagus Alit Subuat and Regional Secretary Ida Bagus Surya Suamba. The activity also involved the Regional Leadership Coordination Forum (Forkopimda), women's organizations, vertical agencies, students, regional government employees, as well as the TNI and Polri.

Cleanliness Needs to Become a Habit

Adi Arnawa assesses that public awareness of cleanliness is starting to grow, including in sorting waste. However, this habit needs to be strengthened so that it occurs consistently.

"The most important thing is that culture will continue to grow in our respective environments. If culture has grown, of course it will have implications for other things. Including what we do as ASN will of course continue to grow, there is no need to direct it later," he said.

He invited participants to be directly involved in cleaning the environment, including irrigation canals in the Badung Community Center area. It is hoped that this involvement will be a form of shared responsibility in caring for the spaces that are used daily.

Clean Environment Supports Tourist Comfort

According to Adi Arnawa, environmental cleanliness also plays an important role in maintaining the comfort of Badung as a tourism destination.

A clean and comfortable environment is expected to provide a positive experience for tourists, thus encouraging them to return to visit and stay longer.

He added that infrastructure development to support tourism needs to go hand in hand with the concern of the community and government officials in protecting the environment.

Through this activity, the Badung Regency Government encourages cleanliness to become a sustainable habit, both in offices and residential areas. It is hoped that the spirit of protecting the environment will continue to be implemented after the series of Tumpek Wayang warnings is completed.
