TANGERANG - Tangerang Regency Government (Pemkab) highlighted the polemic of poor air quality. According to Tangerang Regent Ahmed Zaki Iskandar, one of the causes of poor air pollution in his area was the burning of garbage. Therefore, Zaki plans to give strict sanctions to the perpetrators of public waste burning.
"We will take firm action (the perpetrators of burning garbage-Red), so this must have a deterrent effect. Otherwise, this will repeat itself," Zaki told reporters in Tangerang Regency, Monday, August 21.
Zaki said that his party was coordinating with the police and the local TNI to supervise illegal arson activities in the area.
"Soon we will talk with Forkopimda, especially to the National Police-TNI in the field to monitor illegal fires in Tangerang Regency," he said.
