Kasidik Kejati Banten Himawan said the illegal trash can, for example, in Cibodas Village and Sukasari Village in Rumpin, Bogor Regency, West Java. Then there is Gintung Village and JatiSaringin Village, Tangerang Regency, Banten. Including there is also in the Cilining area, Bekasi Regency. “These countries are individual land, so it is not a land site, so the land is a private land in which the landowner is prepared to make the land as a landfill,” Himawan told the reporters at the Banten attorney on Tuesday (4/15/2025). The South Tangerang City Government in collaboration with PT Epp only throws garbage in an empty country or with an open landfill.
