Minister of the Environment/Head of the Environmental Control Agency (KLH/Environmental Management Agency (BPLH)) Moh Jumhur Hidayat said that the increasing participation of companies in ENSIA 2026 shows the increasing attention of the business world to sustainability.

However, the innovation should not stop at awards. The business world is encouraged to consistently carry out innovations that provide real benefits for the environment and society.

Jumhur conveyed this message while attending ENSIA 2026 in Denpasar, Bali, Thursday, September 10 2026.

According to Jumhur, business world innovation has an important role in increasing environmental compliance, accelerating ecosystem recovery, and realizing equitable development.

Environmental Compliance Must Be Established

Jumhur explained that compliance with the environment needs to be built through a number of approaches, ranging from moral awareness, religious values, to law enforcement.

“In realizing environmental ethical compliance, there are moral appeals, then religious commands, and finally using legal instruments. "Those who cannot be governed morally and religiously, we command legally," he said. Jumhur said.
