JAKARTA - Coordinating Minister for Food Affairs (Menko Pangan) Zulkifli Hasan revealed that the government will simplify waste processing regulations. Because, currently the waste processing rule is quite long because it is regulated in three Presidential Regulations (Perpres).
This was conveyed by Zulkifli Hasan after the coordination meeting on waste management became electrical energy. The meeting was also attended by Minister of Environment Hanif Faisol Nurofiq, Director General of New Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation (EBTKE) Eniya Listiani Dewi, President Director of PT PLN (Persero) Darmawan Prasodjo, and representatives of other ministries/agencies.
"How is the waste processed into electrical energy, there is a Presidential Decree in itself. There is a Presidential Decree regarding Stranas (National Strategy), there is another Presidential Regulation on marine debris. So there are three, we ask for one," he said at a press conference, at the Coordinating Ministry for Food, Jakarta, Friday, March 7.
In addition, Zulhas said the waste management rules were quite long. Although these rules are very important, the implementation becomes complicated because too many regulations overlap.

"This waste management turns out to be complicated because there are many rules. There are rules from the local government, to the DPRD, there are regents or governors, there are also related ministries, even though the results that are purchased are PLN. That's why we have to cut this," he said.
Zulhas admits that garbage in Indonesia has been mounting. Therefore, he said, the government will close the practice of open dumping or how to dispose of waste simply.
"Because our waste has been mounting. So together with that, the arrangements that will be prepared will be better. Earlier, we will also start banning the practice of open dumping. So later the garbage must enter, manage the waste completely," he said.
