JAKARTA - The processing of fuel from waste has become a discourse that will be carried out by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government. Highlighting this, the Chairman of Commission D of the DKI Jakarta DPRD Ida Mahampah re-emphasizes the implementation of RDF (refuse derivative fuel). "I want the construction of urban-scale RDFs that have been budgeted this year so that it can be realized according to the target," said Ida as quoted by Antara, Sunday, April 28. Ida said Commission D always encourages the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government to be able to solve waste problems through management and processing systems for urban scales. This policy aims to prevent the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government from depending on Bantar Gebang in Bekasi, West Java, which has been an Integrated Waste Management Site (TPST). ) So that if this waste can be resolved directly in Jakarta, it will certainly be more effective and efficient starting from being able to minimize the cost incurred," he said. Ida emphasized that in order to achieve more measurable performance, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government as a working partner is asked to make a progress report on the achievement that has been carried out related to RDF With progress reports, it could be known if there are constraints in the field to be able to find common solutions. Moreover, he noted that the achievement of the performance of Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD) which became partners in 2023 there will be progress compared to before. Ida said that one of these achievements was through the performance of the Environment Service Service (LH) along with parties related to Adipura's achievements for the five cities and Thousand Islands Regencies. "An award from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) RI is given related to the handling of waste from sources," he said.

Previously, the Jakarta Provincial Government processed the waste of campaign props (APK) for the 2024 election, which the owner did not take as fuel (RDF). "We return the waste in the form of flags and others to those who own it. But we have a time limit given," said Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono in Jakarta, Friday. According to him, for APK waste that is not taken by the owner, the Environment Agency (DLH) has the right to process the waste to be used as fuel.
