Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo can only shake his head to see garbage scattered in the area around the Jatidiri Stadium in Semarang. Ganjar Pranowo's criticism also targets parking management and improvements to several work projects that are considered less than optimal.

"Just check (Jatidiri Stadium) after the match because there are complaints from residents. One, parking. It means that a parking lot is needed if there is a match like yesterday between PSIS and Persib. It takes a parking lot so the traffic management must be prepared. Second, it must educate everyone because it turns out that the garbage is terrible," said Ganjar during the Jatidiri Stadium inspection in Semarang on the sidelines of the healthy road, Wednesday, February 1 morning.

The scattered garbage has started to be seen from the front of the East gate of the Jatidiri Sports Hall area. The more common it is seen entering the Tel around the stadium. Garbage in the form of plastics, plastic bottles, and cardboard of food left over are scattered in every corner.

"Everything (garbage) around the stadium is covered in many places. I think it is necessary to add more trash places," said Ganjar.

Last Tuesday, January 31, the Jatidiri Stadium in Semarang held a Liga 1 match between PSIS Semarang and Persib Bandung. Persib Bandung was able to beat the host PSIS Semarang with a score of 3-1.

Seeing the condition of the post-match which was a lot of garbage, Ganjar asked the management of the Jatidiri Sports Center to evaluate it. He also hopes that users, including supporters, will participate in maintaining cleanliness by disposing of waste in its place. Because, to clean the Jatidiri Stadium area from garbage, it takes quite a long time.

"This will have to be improved later so that after the match there will be no piles of garbage like this. This is not bad. I asked earlier, it will take at least three days. It feels like maybe we also need tools to be able to speed up. That's at the same time a trial when there are big events, what kind of conditions will be used," explained the governor with white hair.

In addition to checking residents' complaints about parking and cleaning after the event at the Jatidiri Stadium, Ganjar also re-checked several jobs that were considered less than optimal. Some time ago Ganjar did have time to check the progress of the project in the Jatidiri Semarang area.

At that time he found a lot of work that was not good. Among them are trees whose stems were cast. When checked again, it turned out that the old tree was actually cut down and replaced by a new tree.

"Yes, there are still things that need to be reviewed, including a few days ago which we tried to see and asked for improvement. There was panic. So if it's like a tree that's already high, you know, how come this tree is in cement, it's actually just circumvented. But this is actually cut down, it's being removed. This is panic that then makes the decision not too precise. Actually, the wall is covered a bit circularly, the tree can still exist," he said.

In addition to repairing the casted tree, Ganjar also still sees that there are improvements that have not been maximized. For example, the ornaments around the gate look less subtle. Ganjar asked that it be done again so that it is more precise.

"This is what is done from several evaluations, including yesterday I asked for this, I asked for it to be cleaned. It turns out that it has been done but I don't think the job is finished, so I ask for it to be repeated later. So it can really be smooth, precise. Not still leaving like hair like this. This is some example for supervisors so that the quality of supervision must also go up," said Ganjar.
