MATARAM - The Mount Rinjani National Park Office noted that as many as 5,000 people were included in the prohibition list for climbing Mount Rinjani on Lombok Island, West Nusa Tenggara, because they did not comply with the rules for bringing back their trash when going downhill.

"Many are not allowed to climb, there are 5,000 people who are on the black list from 2020-2021. They cannot buy climbing tickets through the e-Rinjani application," said Head of the Mount Rinjani National Park Office (BTNGR) Dedy Asriady, quoted by Antara. Between, Thursday, March 31.

He said the people on the blacklist were from various regions, but most were local residents. They are not allowed to climb Mount Rinjani for two years starting from 2021 and 2022.

"So next year they can only climb because they are blacklisted in 2020," he said.

Dedy emphasized that everyone who will climb Mount Rinjani is checked and recorded in the e-Rinjani application. Not only people's names, but also luggage that can become trash.

"So there is an inspection using e-Rinjani, where they are asked to enter waste data and when they go down the mountain they are checked again," he said.

His party has reminded every climber to bring down their trash so as not to pollute the national park area. It also aims to prevent climbers from being blacklisted because no trash is brought down from the mountain.

"We prefer to keep the mountain clean, rather than a lot of people going up but the mountain becomes dirty because of garbage," said Dedy.

BTNGR has reopened climbing Mount Rinjani on Lombok Island, since March 16, 2022 with a maximum visit quota of 50 percent of the normal visit quota.

The duration of the climbing tour is three days and two nights according to the direction of the Director General of Conservation of Natural Resources Ecosystems, Ministry of Environment and Forestry.
