Jakarta Strengthens Waste Processing at RW Level to Reduce Shipments to Bantargebang

"By consistently sorting, waste that still has use value can be processed and reused by residents, so that waste management at the RW level becomes more optimal," he said.

Waste reduction needs to be measured

Providing equipment and training is the initial support for waste management in RW 06. However, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government's statement has not mentioned the number of participating households, the volume of waste sorted, or the amount of compost produced.

This data is needed to assess the use of facilities and program results in reducing waste. For now, reducing shipments to Bantargebang is still a program goal, not yet a reported measurable achievement.
