JAKARTA - Indonesia still has serious problems related to waste management. Based on data from the National Waste Management Information System (SIPSN) of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), in 2022 alone, the number of national waste accumulations will reach 21.1 million tons.

Therefore, the habit of sorting waste should have been instilled from an early age, both in the family environment and in the school environment. The 2024 Healthy School Movement organized by Kao Indonesia helped provide Waste Points in several schools in the spirit of KAO Bisa Children (Disposal Pills) to start the habit of sorting waste from an early age.

This program acts as a facilitator for children to start practicing wisely pilah sampah through simple things in their daily lives, namely by collecting used packaging using Kao products to be recycled by waste management partners into useful objects and not ending up in Final Disposal Sites (TPA).

Naoki Yoshigai, President Director of Kao Indonesia, said that this movement helps children in providing understanding and changes in behavior related to their own health.

"The Healthy School Movement includes understanding and changes in behavior related to self-health and the environment which is believed to be one of the main keys in improving people's quality of life," explained Naoki Yoshigai, quoted by VOI from a media broadcast, Wednesday, July 24.

"Therefore, Kao Indonesia strives to contribute sustainably through educational activities and the development of other initiatives that are adapted to social issues and school needs where bring knowledge into practice' so that children can have a comprehensive understanding that becomes the driving force for the realization of Kirei Lifestyle in their daily lives," concluded Naoki.
